Sens v. Commissioner of Public Safety

OPINION

NIERENGARTEN, Judge.

The Commissioner of Public Safety appeals from an order which rescinded the revocation of respondent Sens’ driver’s license. The trial court determined that the arresting officer did not have probable cause to believe Sens was in physical control of his motor vehicle. We reverse.

FACTS

Early in the morning a police officer received a call that a suspicious person had knocked on the door of a house in Eagan, and had asked to be allowed inside. When the occupants of the house denied the man’s request, he got into a brown “station wagon-type vehicle” parked on the street.
