State of Tennessee v. Alorra D. Puckett - Dissenting

Case Number
E2002-01959-CCA-R3-CD
Although the issue is indeed close, I believe the stop was lawful. The officer observed three driving irregularities on a straight highway within a relatively short period of time, one of which occurred prior to activation of the videotape. Thus, I believe the facts here are distinguishable from the cases relied upon by the majority and are more similar to State v. Gary S. Greve, No. E2002-00999-CCA-R3-CD, 2003 Tenn. Crim. App. LEXIS 255 (Tenn. Crim. App. Mar. 27, 2003, at Knoxville), in which we upheld the stop.
