Re: Trust the 'expert' cop fails again.

As I said, the DUI charges should be dismissed, but there is enough
evidence here to pull this guy in for a DMV re-test. If he fails, he
should lose his license.

It seems he has had these conditions since childhood.

Do you have any objections to that position?

He probably already passed it just as he is.

Anyway you're dead wrong there. The article
didn't indicate his driving isn't any worse than masses out there.

It said he couldn't pass simple field sobriety tests. I don't know any
drivers who can't walk a straight line.

To what degree? Pass and fail is subjective.

Are you saying someone with an injury to his left leg
that prevents him from walking a straight line cannot drive (an automatic
trans car anyway)?

The ability to do these motor skills tests has little if any
relationship to being able to drive safely

I can't believe you're saying something so ridiculous. Next you'll be
saying that geezers should be allowed to keep driving past their
expiration dates despite their obviously failed motor skills.

I have big feet... this means big shoes. A line on pavement can actually
narrower than my shoe in some parking lots. If I was forced to walk it
stone cold sober I could easily place my feet down in such a way that the
cop could decide I was impaired. After all, I have to hit the line dead
center each time or it looks like I am much further off than say a woman
with small feet that easily stay in boundries of the line with room to
spare. The whole thing is perception based. and perception often isn't
reality.

So let the DMV test him then. I'm willing to accept their conclusion.

The way the article reads it already has.
