This is a fine mess Ollie. The lawmakers that wrote that wonderful piece of legislation probably thought someone would use some common sense when applying this and not turn it into the rabbit hole that it has become. I'm actually surprised that a judge has gone along with this.

I understand that you, AFCop, wouldn't charge someone with this unless it was something to add on to another crime, but it could be by someone else. This could be abused by another officer at one of the many no refusal DUI checkpoints. All that has to happen is for the officer to catch a glimpse of some bottle or cans that have fallen over on the floor in the back seat and someone gets a citation.
