To rule out impairment of alcohol, a road-side demand was performed and a reading of zero was provided. The Drug Recognition Expert (DRE) evaluation indicated the accused was not impaired by drug at that given time.
As a result of an investigation, a 41-year-old male from Burlington was charged with Possession of Schedule I Drug and Driving While Suspended.
His vehicle was impounded for seven days.
