Houston, was pulled over for
reckless driving at which time
he showed signs of impairment
and voluntarily agreed to take
a standard fi eld sobriety test.
His poor performance on the
test led to his arrest; a search of
his vehicle turned up a loaded
fi rearm under the driver’s
seat. Santana’s breath sample
indicated his impairment wasn’t
alcohol related and he agreed to
further testing and was found to
be impaired by controlled sub-
stance. He was issued criminal
citations and released.

pened on U.S. Highway 101 at

tinued on to hit two more cars,
fi nally coming to rest on the
northbound shoulder. Two of
the struck cars stayed on scene
but a third car left prior to law
enforcement arrival. The driver
of the fi rst car was issued cita-
tion violations. Involved in the
