Motor Vehicles
OWI; reasonable suspicion
John A. Taylor stands convicted of operating a vehicle while intoxicated, operating with a prohibited blood alcohol concentration and improper lane deviation. He appeals on the basis of State v. Post, 2007 WI 60, ¶2, 301 Wis. 2d 1, 733 N.W.2d 634, holding that repeated weaving by a driver within a single lane does not alone give rise to the reasonable suspicion necessary for a traffic stop. He claims that his case is just the scenario identified by the Post court. We hold that the facts here are not like those envisioned in Post and affirm. This opinion will not be published.
