Question juridique clé
Whether the conviction for gross violation of traffic rules was based on arbitrary appreciation of evidence and violated in dubio pro reo.
Solution extraite
No. The appellate court could rely on the largely concordant testimony of three witnesses and regard the defendant's statements as contradictory and implausible.
Motifs extraits
Federal review of in dubio pro reo as a rule of evidence is limited to arbitrariness. The complaint was largely appellatory and did not specifically show why the lower court's reliance on the witnesses was untenable.
