This involves an auto accident in Maryland. What I am trying to figure out is if 'Driving while impaired' (under MD statute 21-902(b)) is considered a reduced charge compared to 'DUI-Per Se' (statute 21-902(a)(2)). I'm trying to figure out what the final outcome of the charge was, it affects my insured's credibility as far as fault determination goes.
While I (hopefully) have your attention, does anyone know what 'Disposition: PBJ (6-220)' might mean?
The driver received 5 tickets at the accident and I'm told that he completed some kind of program and his license was eventually restored. But I looked up the court case and I can't decipher what he ended up pleading guilty to. It looks like the initial traffic court charges were all dropped and merged into one criminal case for the DUI. I'm also told (by the owner who was the passenger) that he smelled like alcohol, but passed both they breathalyzer and field sobriety test, but was arrested and charged anyway.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
