Richard v. Commonwealth

Facts:

Defendant was convicted of eluding a police officer and driving while intoxicated. Defendant defense was that his conviction for eluding a police officer constituted a conviction for reckless driving, thereby requiring the trial court, in obedience to Va. Code Ann. § 19.2-294.1, to have dismissed a driving while intoxicated charge against him which arose out of the "same acts."

Holdings:

The Virginia Court made the following holding:

Excessive speed remote from the place of accident is not, of itself, sufficient to warrant an inference of excessive speed at the time of the accident. But whether such evidence has probative value is usually within the sound discretion of the trial court, depending on distance from the scene of accident and possibly other factors.
