The Defendant was making a left turn where he went into the wrong lane of travel almost striking a stop sign. He was stopped and had bloodshot/glassy eyes, a strong odor of alcohol, an extremely difficult time maintaining balance where he almost fell over several times. He was asked for his insurance card three times and could not find it. He said he had 3-4 beers and then changed it to a six pack. His speech was slurred and he performed very poorly on roadsides. He even said “I am not doing too good” during the roadsides. He was arrested and taken to jail where he blew a .191 and .187. The Firm negotiated with the State Attorney’s Office where the State ultimately agreed to dismiss the charges for Driving Under the Influence.
