1Opinion of the Court

NORRIS, Judge.

We granted Stephen L. Blake’s application for writs in this DWI case to consider whether the trial court erred in admitting PEI test results and in convicting him on insufficient evidence. We now make peremptory the writ previously granted, reverse the conviction and order Blake discharged.

The bill of information charged Blake with two offenses: (1) operating “a vehicle on Red River Parish Road # 238 while under the influence of an alcoholic beverage,” La.R.S. 14:98, and (2) failing to maintain control of the vehicle he was operating on Red River Parish Road # 238, La.R.S. 32:58.
