The Rhode Island Traffic Tribunal appeals panel affirmed the trial judge’s decision sustaining the charged violation of G.L. 1956 § 31-27-2.1 (refusal to submit to a chemical test). The Court held that the officer had reasonable grounds to believe that the appellant had been operating her motor vehicle while under the influence when the officer observed appellant had bloodshot and watery eyes, mumbled and slurred words, and emitted a very strong odor of alcohol. Thus, the Court affirmed the refusal charge against the defendant.
