Sep 6, 2024	Case: 23-01374MU10A	Judge Gottlieb
Facts:	The defendant was observed driving the wrong way on the highway exit ramp. A civilian witness subsequently observed the defendant passed out behind the wheel. 911 was called, and the defendant was pulled out of the vehicle by fire rescue and taken to the hospital. While receiving medical care a trooper arrived at the hospital to conduct an investigation. The trooper made contact with the defendant and observed an odor of alcohol, bloodshot eyes as well as dilated pupils. The trooper began a DUI investigation and requested the defendant perform field sobriety exercises in the parking lot of the hospital. After performing the HGN (eye test), walk and turn, as well as the one leg stand, the defendant was arrested for DUI.
Defense:	Florida Statute 901.15 explains that in order to make a valid arrest for a DUI, all of the elements must be observed in the presence of the officer. This language requires the officer to personally witness the defendant operating the vehicle regardless of the fact that both civilian witnesses and paramedics saw the defendant driving and behind the wheel. The prosecutor offered to reduce the charges to a reckless driving. Counsel rejected the offer and continued to argue that the arrest was unlawful. Ultimately, the prosecutor agreed and the DUI was dismissed.
Result:	The DUI was dismissed.
