A Holmes Beach man arrested for allegedly driving under the influence is on probation for a year.
Holmes Beach police stopped Mitchell Taylor Feb. 4, 2019, in the 2800 block of Gulf Drive. An officer had observed Taylor drive a minivan with one working headlight across the centerline of the road, according to an HBPD report.
Taylor performed poorly on a road sobriety test and an officer transported him to the HBPD, where he consented to a breath-alcohol test, whick measured 0.186 and 0.194. The legal BAC limit is 0.08.
In December 2019, after Taylor pleaded no contest to a charge of alcohol-related reckless driving, a judge placed him on one-year probation.
The judge also ordered Taylor to pay costs — $55 per month for probation supervision, $317 in fines and $130 in attorney and court fees.
