Bert Salva v. RITT, A.A. No. 2010-027 Credibility

Defendant appealed the decision of the Appeals Panel sustaining the violation of R.I.G.L. 1956 § 31-41.1-8 (obedience to devices).  The Court held that it was reasonable to infer that when an eighteen wheel tractor trailer was traveling from a northerly direction through RI, the vehicle would continue to solely operate on Route 95 South.  Thus, the Court affirmed the decision of the Appeals Panel finding that the state established by clear and convincing evidence that the defendant violated § 31-13-4, which made it unlawful for any vehicle with more than two axles to transport or operate over or upon the Pawtucket River Bridge.
