OF DRIVERS LICENSING
: 98-6429 CIVIL TERM
IN RE: LICENSE SUSPENSION APPEAL
BEFORE BAYLEY. J.
OPINION AND ORDER OF COURT
Bayley, J., June 9,1999:-
The Department of Transportation suspended the driving privilege of petitioner
Nicholas S, James for one year pursuant 10 the Vehicle Code at 75 Pa,C,S, Section
1547, for the refusal to submit to a chemical test following an arrest for driving under
the influence of alcohol. A hearing on petitioner's appeal from the suspension was
conducted on June 7, 1999. We find the following facts,
At 2:35 a.m" on September 27, 1998, Officer Robert Ressler of the West Shore
Regional Police Departrnent saw petitioner driving fast on Market Street in the Borough
of Lemoyne, The officer got behind petitioner who turned left onto Third Street.
Petitioner proceeded straight through a green light at the intersection of Hurnmel Street
but did so in the left turn lane, The officer was only able to clock petitioner for two
tenths of a rnile at 41 miles per hour in a 25 mile per hour zone, Petitioner proceeded
98-6429 CIVIL TERM
straight through a green light at the intersection of Louther Street again in the left hand
turn lane. Officer Ressler initiated a traffic stop and petitioner stopped his vehicle with
the right side wheels on a curb, Petitioner produced his cards with some difficulty and
the officer noticed that his eyes were slightly glassy and bloodshot. Officer Ressler
smelled a strong odor of alcohol and asked petitioner if he had been drinking.
Petitioner said he had four beers, The officer had petitioner perform field sobriety tests,
Petitioner failed the walk-and-turn test. He stopped doing the one-Jeg stand test in Ihe
middle and he refused to continue, Officer Ressler was of the opinion that petitioner
was under the influence of alcohol to a degree that rendered him incapable of safe
driving and he arrested him for driving under the influence. He placed petitioner in his
police car and read him the implied consent law after which petitioner said he was not
taking a test. The officer took petitioner to a booking center where he again read
petitioner the implied consent law, Petitioner again refused to take a test.
Petitioner makes one argument, citing a criminal case that arose in this court,
Commonwealth v. Whitmyer, 542 Pa. 545 (1995), that there was no legal basis for
Officer Ressler to stop him; therefore, the subsequent administrative suspension of his
driving privileges for refusal to submit to a test of his blood alcohol content was invalid,
This exact issue was raised and rejected by the Supreme Court of Pennsylvania in
Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, Department of Transportation v. Wysocki, 517
Pa, 175 (1987), In Wysocki, defendant, who refused to subrnit to a chemical test
following his arrest for driving under the influence, maintained that his arrest was tainted
-2-
,.
98-6429 CIVIL TERM
The test to determine whether a police officer has reasonable
grounds to conclude that a motorist operated a vehicle under the
influence is not very demanding, Department of Transportation,
Bureau of Driver licensing v. Johnson, 102 Pa. Cmwlth, 302, 518 A.2d
8 (1986), In Department of Transportation, Bureau of Traffic Safety v.
Dreisbach, 26 Pa,Cmwlth. 201,363 A.2d 870 (1976), we set forth the
reasonable grounds test:
[F]or 'reasonable grounds' to exist, the police officer
obviously need not be correct in his belief that the motorist
had been driving while intoxicated, We are dealing here
with the authority to request a person to submit to a
chemical test and not with the admission into evidence of
the result of such a test. The only valid inquiry on this issue
at the de novo hearing is whether, viewing the facts and
circumstances as they appeared at the time, a reasonable
person in the position of the police officer could have
concluded that the motorist was operating the vehicle and
under the influence of intoxicating liquor.
Based on our findings of facts, we conclude that the Department of
Transportation has established the four requirernents necessary to uphold its
suspension of petitioner's driving privileges for failing to subrnit to a test of the alcohol
content of his blood, As the Supreme Court of Pennsylvania concluded in Wysocki, we
need not here consider petitioner's assertion that Officer Ressler did not have a legal
basis for stopping his vehicle on the night of September 27, 1998, Accordingly, the
following order is entered,
ORDER OF COURT
AND NOW, this
I~'"
day of June, 1999, the appeal of Nicholas S.
James frorn the suspension of his driving privilege for a period of one year, IS
DISMISSED.
