People v. Smith

New York County Courts

Decided October 27, 1960Published

1Opinion of the CourtLouis G. Bruhn, J.

This is an appeal by the defendant from a judgment of conviction rendered on July 20, 1960 by the Hon. Arthur A. Beilly, Justice of the Peace of the Town of Ulster, without a jury, for a violation of section 58 of the Vehicle and Traffic Law of the State of New York.

Beversal is sought on the basis that the instant information is fatally defective in that it fails to allege that the defendant was driving his vehicle “in a manner which unreasonable [sic] interferes with the free and proper use of the public highway or unreasonably endangers users of the public highway.”
