Princy v.
Commonwealth
Facts:
Defendant was
charged with reckless driving in violation under Va. Code Ann. § 46.2-852. She
filed a motion in limine seeking to exclude any testimony concerning a
preliminary breath test (PBT), or in the alternative, for an instruction with
regard to the blood alcohol presumptions found in Va. Code Ann. § 18.2-269. The
motion was denied by the Circuit Court of Fairfax, Virginia. Defendant appealed
her reckless driving conviction.

Holdings:
The Virginia
Court made the following holding:
- Va. Code Ann. § 46.2-852
does not mention intoxication. Nor does the statute prohibit driving with
a particular blood alcohol level. Evidence of intoxication is a factor
that might bear upon proof of dangerous or reckless driving in a given
case even though it does not, of itself, prove reckless driving.
Therefore, in a reckless driving case, intoxication--not mere consumption
of some alcohol--is relevant to establishing that the defendant drove her
car so as to endanger the life, limb, or property of any person. §
46.2-852. In order to prove intoxication, proof of a defendant's blood
alcohol level may be introduced along with other evidence concerning the
significance of this blood alcohol level.
