DUI Decision Stop based on Move Over law

In State v Brooks, filed today in the Court of Criminal Appeals, a guilty plea had been entered. The defendant reserved the suppression question for appeal. The stop was based on a violation of the mover over law. The defendant drove a semi, did not move over and forced the officer to jump on the hood of his car to save himself. The truckdriver turned out to be a DUI driver.
