Description
The offense is driving a motor vehicle while intoxicated; the punishment assessed by a jury, 28 days confinement in the county jail and a fine of $80.00. The state's evidence reflects that appellant was stopped by J. R. Jones, a deputy sheriff of Brazoria County and Dick Orand, a patrolman of the Department of Public Safety, for driving a pickup truck on the wrong side of a two-way roadway in Brazoria County. The testimony reflects that appellant almost collided with the police car being driven by Deputy Jones. After being stopped, appellant was observed by the two officers who both testified substantially to the same facts. They related that appellant was unsteady on his feet, his speech was incoherent, and a very strong odor of alcohol was noticeable. Both officers expressed their opinion that appellant was intoxicated.
