DUI (.082 BAC) REDUCED to WEAVING/SPEED TICKET – State v. Mr. H. (DMC No. 5315) (Scottsdale City Court TR2005-00606): Mr. H. was pulled over near Thomas Road and 68th Street in Scottsdale for allegedly weaving. He was subsequently arrested for DUI and provided a .082 BAC. Because he was pulled over during an East Valley DUI “task force”, we argued that this was a “pre-text” stop, and that the officer was merely trolling for DUI’s. The Prosecutor initially offered a reckless driving, but we were able to convince them to lower it to a simple “speeding” and “weaving” ticket.
