The defendant crashed into three other vehicles while they were stopped at a traffic light. The defendant then left the scene of the accident. One of the vehicles followed the defendant until law enforcement arrived. Deputy Hauter and the BSO DUI Task Force noticed that the defendant had an odor of alcohol on his breath, observed glassy bloodshot eyes, was unsteady on his feet, had urinated in his pants and stated he had consumed two Corona Beers and felt that he was impaired by alcohol. The defendant performed poorly on the roadsides and took the breath test, which indicated he was a one point and was probably over the limit. The State dropped the D.U.I Charges.
