The Defendant was driving at about 11 p.m. with no headlights on and was all over the road. Other vehicles were swerving out of his way to avoid a crash. The officer stopped him and he noticed bloodshot eyes and an odor of alcohol coming from him. A DUI unit was called and responded. The Defendant handed the officer a GPS unit for some unknown reason and then admitted that he had been drinking a beer. His speech was slurred and spoke broken English. He agreed to give a breath sample after he could not understand roadsides. He blew a .123 and .121. The State of Florida after plea negotiations with the firm agreed to dismiss the charges for DUI.
