NOT CHARGED | DUI; OPEN CONTAINER and CONSUMPTION WHILE DRIVING DISMISSED – State v. Mr. Z. (DMC No. 5906) (Arrowhead Justice Court/DPS DR05-003681): Mr. Z. was involved in a traffic collision on HWY 60 near mile post 146. He had an open container in his car and had admitted to drinking while driving. Because he had some injuries, no field sobriety tests were given. Because of discovery issues, we were able to convince the prosecutor to dismiss the open container and consumption while driving charges. In addition, no DUI charges were ever brought.
