Opinion
A California Highway Patrol officer stopped a car driven by plaintiff Ashley Jourdan Coffey after he observed her driving erratically. Four subsequent chemical tests revealed her blood-alcohol concentration (BAC) ranged from 0.08 to 0.096 percent. The officer then confiscated plaintiff’s driver’s license and served her with a notice that her license would be suspended pursuant to Vehicle Code section 13382.
We decide in this case whether the trial court erred by considering, in addition to the results of breath and blood tests, other circumstantial evidence of intoxication to conclude by a preponderance of the evidence that plaintiff drove with a BAC at or above 0.08 percent. As we explain, we conclude the trial court did not err.
On November 13, 2011, at 1:32 in the morning, Sergeant Martin of the California Highway Patrol was traveling southbound on State Route 55 in Orange County when he saw a car traveling 60 miles per hour, swerving erratically from side to side. From the number four, or right-hand, lane, the car swerved one foot to the left into the number three lane before correcting. It then twice swerved one to two feet to the right, onto the highway’s shoulder. Sergeant Martin positioned his patrol vehicle behind the car and activated his emergency lights, whereupon the car slowly moved left across the highway into the number one lane. When Martin activated his siren, the car veered even further left, into the carpool lane. Only when Sergеant Martin used his public address system and directed the driver to pull to the right did the car eventually comply.
Upon making contact with the driver of the vehicle, plaintiff Ashley Coffey, Sergeant Martin noticed her eyes were red and a strong odor of alcohol emanated from her car. Officer White arrived to provide backup and confirmed these observations. To both officers she denied having consumed any alcoholic beverages, offering the rather implausible story that she had just turned 21 years old, had been in a bar, but had not herself consumed any alcoholic beverages. The officers then had plaintiff perform various field sobriety tests. Plaintiff failed the horizontal gaze nystagmus test, “displaying] a lack of smooth pursuit in both eyes.”
Plaintiff, charged with drunk driving (§ 23152), was allowed to plead to a “wet reckless” (§§ 23103 [misdemeanor reckless driving], 23103.5 [prosecutorial statement that alcohol was involved]; see People v. Claire (1991)
At the ensuing administrative hearing, the DMV hearing officer had before her the “Officer’s Sworn Statement” form, Officer White’s arrest report and the supplemental reports of Sergeant Martin and Officer White. In addition to considering these documents, the hearing officer heard telephonic testimony from Jay Williams, a forensic toxicologist with extensive experience, who testified for plaintiff. Williams noted the result of plaintiff’s first breath test was 0.08 percent, the second test three minutes later was 0.09 percent, and her blood sample taken about 20 minutes later tested at 0.095 and 0.096 percent. According to Williams, these results suggested the alcohol level in plaintiff’s body was rising at the time of the tests and, given the totality of the circumstances, were consistent with plaintiff’s BAC being below 0.08 percent at 1:32 a.m. when she was first pulled over by Sergeant Martin.
Plaintiff filed a petition for a writ of mandate with the trial court to challenge the DMV hearing officer’s decision. After first noting that section 23152, subdivision (b) makes it a rebuttable presumption that a person was driving with a BAC of 0.08 percent or higher if so tested at that level or higher within three hours of driving (see Discussion, post), the trial court denied the writ, explaining that “[ejven assuming that petitioner Coffey rebutted [this] presumption . . . , there was sufficient evidence based on the blood-alcohol tests and the other circumstantial evidence based on the assessment, observations and tests by the arresting officers at the scene to support the DMV hearing officer’s decision under the weight of the evidence.” (Italics added.)
The Court of Appeal affirmed. In determining whether the trial court’s decision was supported by substantial evidence, the appellate court opined
Discussion
A. Background
The DMV suspended plaintiff’s license to drive pursuant to the “administrative per se” law, “under which a person arrested for driving under the influence of alcohol, and who is determined to have a prohibited amount of alcohol in his or her blood, must have driving privileges suspended prior to an actual conviction for a criminal offense.” (Lake, supra,
Pursuant to the administrative per se law, “[a]fter either the arresting officer or the DMV serves a person with a ‘notice of an order of suspension or revocation of the person’s [driver’s license],’ the DMV automatically reviews the merits of the suspension or revocation. [Citation.] The standard of review is preponderance of the evidence [citation], and the department bears the burden of proof [citations].” (Lake, supra,
B. The Rebuttable Presumption in Section 23152
We first address whether the presumption created by section 23152, subdivision (b) controls this case. That provision states in part: “In any prosecution under this subdivision, it is a rebuttable presumption that the person had 0.08 pеrcent or more, by weight, of alcohol in his or her blood at the time of driving the vehicle if the person had 0.08 percent or more, by weight, of alcohol in his or her blood at the time of the performance of a chemical test within three hours after the driving.” Although the statutory language speaks in terms of a “prosecution,” several Courts of Appeal have held this presumption is not limited to criminal prosecutions but also applies in administrative license suspension proceedings. (See Corrigan v. Zolin (1996)
Extending the reach of section 23152, subdivision (b)’s evidentiary presumption to administrative per se proceedings would be consistent with the legislative history of that provision. The need for the presumption “arose from the absence in ‘[e]xisting law’ of any ‘provision for the delay involved between the time a person is arrested for [driving under the influence] and when the chemical test for BAC is actually administered,’ of any ‘means to determine a person’s BAC at the time the person is actually driving the car,’ or of any ‘mention of timе parameters for the administering of chemical tests and for their admission as [admissible] evidence into a court of law.’ (Health & Welf. Agency, Dept. of Alcohol & Drug Programs, Enrolled Bill Rep. for Sen. Bill No. 745 (1981-1982 Reg. Sess.) Sept. 1982, original italics.) Thus, in enacting the presumption, the Legislature intended (1) to ‘diminish the arguments that ha[d] arisen when extrapolating the [BAC] at the time of the test back to the time of the driving’ (Bus. & Transportation Agency, DMV, Enrolled Bill Rep. for Sen. Bill No. 745 (1981-1982 Reg. Sess.) Sept. 1982),
Consistent with the previously cited Court of Appeal cases, both parties assume section 23152’s presumption applies in administrative per se hearings. We need not resolve that question, however, because even were the presumption applicable, it was rebutted in this case. An explanation of how the presumption operates can be found in the Evidence Code. Section 601 of that code provides: “A presumption is either conclusive or rebuttable. Every rebuttable presumption is either (a) a presumption affecting the burden of producing evidence or (b) a presumption affecting the burden of proof.” Vehicle Code section 23152, subdivision (b), by its terms, creates a rebuttable presumption, and we agree with the parties that it establishes a presumption affecting the burden of producing evidence, not the burden of proof. A statute transferring the burden of proof to a driver facing a criminal charge of drunk driving would raise serious constitutional questions (see Ulster County Court v. Allen (1979)
A rebuttable presumption requirеs the trier of fact, given a showing of the preliminary fact (here, that a chemical test result showed plaintiff had a BAC of 0.08 percent or more within three hours of driving), to assume the existence of the presumed fact (here, that plaintiff had been driving with a prohibited BAC) “unless and until evidence is introduced which would
Assuming the results of her breath and blood tests gave rise to a presumption she was driving with a BAC of 0.08 percent оr more, plaintiff argues the testimony of her expert witness, Jay Williams, supplied the necessary contrary evidence sufficient to rebut the presumption. By contrast, the DMV argues Williams’s testimony was insufficient, arguing that evidence necessary to rebut the presumption must be substantial, i.e., “ ‘reasonable in nature, credible, and of solid value; it must actually be “substantial” proof of the essentials which the law requires in a particular case.’ ” Asserting the DMV hearing officer’s refusal to credit Williams’s views shows his testimony was insubstantial, the DMV argues his testimony was accordingly insufficient to rebut the statutory presumption.
The DMV misapprehends Evidence Code section 604. That section provides that evidence is sufficient to rebut a presumption if it “would support a finding of [the] nonexistence of’ the presumed fact. (Italics added.) The most reasonable meaning of this phrase is that if the predicate facts are found, Vehicle Code section 23152’s presumption will apply unless the driver presents evidence which, if believed, “would support a finding of [the] nonexistence оf’ (Evid. Code, § 604) the presumed fact. This plain meaning of the statutory language is supported by the Assembly Committee on Judiciary’s comment on Evidence Code section 604, which states: “Such a presumption is merely a preliminary assumption in the absence of contrary evidence, i.e., evidence sufficient to sustain a finding of the nonexistence of the presumed fact. If contrary evidence is introduced, the trier of fact must weigh the inferences arising from the facts that gave rise to the presumption against the contrary evidence and resolve the conflict. For example, if a party proves that a letter was mailed, the trier of fact is required to find that the letter was received in the absence of any believable contrary evidence. However, if the adverse party denies receipt, the presumption is gone from the case. The trier of fact must then weigh the denial of receipt against the inference of receipt arising from proof of mailing and decide whether or not the lеtter was received.” (Assem. Com. on Judiciary com., reprinted at 29B pt. 2 West’s Ann. Evid. Code (1995 ed.) foll. § 604, p. 59.)
C. The Circumstantial Evidence of Plaintiff’s Intoxication Was Relevant and Thus Admissible
Having found the statutory presumption in section 23152, subdivision (b), even if applicable, does not control this case, we turn to the main issue presented here: Did the DMV hearing officer properly admit and consider non-chemical-test evidence to reach her conclusion that plaintiff was driving with at least a 0.08 percent BAC?*
The crime of drunk driving is set forth in section 23152 and can be established in two ways: Subdivision (a) states that “[i]t is unlawful for a person who is under the influence of any alcoholic beverage to drive a vehicle.” To prove a violation under subdivision (a), the People must present evidence the driver’s alcohol consumption impaired his or her ability to drive. (People v. McNeal (2009)
Plaintiff argues reliance on the non-chemical-test circumstantial evidence was improper because such evidence cannot by itself establish whether her BAC was 0.08 percent, higher than 0.08 percent, or lower than that level. She cites to scientific evidence showing that physical manifestations of alcohol intoxication can occur at levels much lower than a BAC of 0.08 percent and that observable physical symptoms correlate poorly to actual BAC levels. She also argues that one study has shown that poor performance on field sobriety tests has a low correlation to whether a driver’s BAC is over 0.08 percent. (Hlastala et al., Statistical Evaluation of Standardized. Field Sobriety Tests (May 2005) 50 J. Forensic Science, No. 3, p. 662.)
Unmentioned is that some studies have reached a contrary conclusion. For example, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) released the results of a study in 1998 that evaluated the accuracy of the standardized field sоbriety test (SFST) battery at BACs below 0.10 percent. (Stuster & Bums, Final Rep. to NHTSA, Validation of the Standardized Field Sobriety Test Battery at BACs Below 0.10 Percent (1998).) The NHTSA’s study found that the battery of SFSTs, which includes three of the tests
We are not here attempting to resolve the scientific debate over the use of SFSTs to predict BAC. As plaintiff acknowledges, the test for admissibility of evidence is not a strict one: As a general matter, evidence may be admitted if relevant (Evid. Code, § 350), and “ ‘[rjelevant evidence’ means evidence . . . having any tendency in reason to prove or disprove any disputed fact that is of consequence to the determination of the action” (id., § 210). “ ‘ “The test of relevance is whether the evidence tends, ‘logically, naturally, and by reasonable inference’ to establish material facts (People v. Wilson (2006)
Past cases applying this standard have found circumstantial evidence of intoxication may be admissible when later-administered chemical tests show a BAC exceeding the legal limit. In Burg v. Municipal Court, supra,
Plaintiff would distinguish Burg, supra,
Plaintiff argues Burg, supra,
Plaintiff argues Fuenning is neither controlling nor even on point because it did not address the issue before us in the instant case. Although Fuenning is an Arizona case and thus admittedly not controlling here (see Farmers Ins. Group v. County of Santa Clara (1995)
The administrative per se scheme in section 13382 is triggered by a chemical test result showing a BAC of 0.08 percent or more, and we do not here confront a case in which the DMV failed to present such test results; indeed, the DMV produced the results of four such tests. In other words, neither the DMV hearing officer nor the trial court considered circumstantial evidence of intoxication in the absence of any chemical test results. Although we find non-chemical-test evidence of plaintiff’s intoxication may be relevant and thus admissible in the typical administrative per se proceeding triggered by a BAC of 0.08 percent or more to help connect those test results to a driver’s BAC at the time she was driving (subject, of course, to the hearing officer’s routine exercise of discretion), we would in any event affirm the hearing officer’s decision in this case because the non-chemical-test evidence was admissible to rebut plaintiff’s proffered defense that her BAC was low at the time she was driving and only later rose to exceed the legal limit. Her expert, Jay Williams, testified that, in his opinion, the four chemical test results indicated plaintiff’s BAC was rising at the time of the tests; from that supposition, he further deduced that plaintiff’s BAC was below the 0.08 percent threshold at the time she was driving. Even assuming that non-chemical-test evidence cannot by itself prove a driver’s exact BAC at the moment the driver is stopped by a police officer, in this case plaintiff’s erratic driving, outward appearance of substantial intoxication, implausible story of having just turned 21 years old, and having come from a bar without having imbibed alcohol at all, and her failure on multiple field sobriety tests, together tend to rebut Williams’s theory of a rising BAC and corroborate the BAC test results. For example, plaintiff’s extremely erratic driving, observed by Sergeant Martin from before the moment he first made contact with her, suggests she was quite intoxicated from that early point in the timeline and tends to refute the expert’s speculation that her BAC was low at the time she was driving, but rose to 0.08 percent and above only after she was stopped. Whether the circumstantial evidence of plaintiff’s intoxication was admitted to bolster the results of the chemical tests or merely to rebut plaintiff’s defense of a rising BAC, the hearing officer did not act in “an arbitrary, capricious or patently absurd manner” and thus did not abuse her broad discretion. (People v. Jones, supra,
Brenner v. Department of Motor Vehicles (2010)
Having concluded the DMV hearing officer properly admitted the circumstantial, nontest evidence of plaintiff’s intoxication, we also conclude substantial evidence supported the trial court’s decision to deny writ relief, thereby sustaining the DMV hearing officer’s decision to suspend plaintiff’s license to drive. A driver whose license has been suspended under the administrative per se law can seek review of the DMV’s decision by seeking a writ of mandate in the trial court. “In ruling on an applicаtion for a writ of mandate following an order of suspension or revocation, a trial court is required to determine, based on its independent judgment, ‘ “whether the weight of the evidence supported the administrative decision.” ’ ” (Lake, supra,
Applying this standard, we have no trouble concluding substantial evidence supported the trial court’s ruling, for it acted well within its

“ ‘Nystagmus is an involuntary rapid movement of the eyeball, which may be horizontal, vertical, or rotary. [Citation.] An inability of the eyes to maintain visual fixation as they are turned from side to side (in other words, jerking or bouncing) is known as horizontal gaze nystagmus, or HGN. [Citation.] Some investigators believe alcohol intoxication increases the frequency and amplitude of HGN and causes HGN to occur at a smaller angle of deviation from the forward direction.’ ” (People v. Leahy (1994)
The “ ‘walk-and-tum test’ ” is significant because it tests “ ‘many of the same skills needed for driving,’ such as small muscle control, information processing, reaction, balance, coordination, and short-term memory.” (U.S. v. Stanton (9th Cir. 2007)
“Officers administering the Walk-and-Turn test observe the suspect’s performance for eight clues:
“• can’t balance during instructions;
“• starts too soon;
*1204 “• stops while walking;
“• doesn’t touch heel-to-toe;
“• steps off line;
“• uses arms to balance;
“• loses balance on turn or turns incorrectly; and,
“• takes the wrong number of steps.”
(Utah Prosecution Council, Driving Under the Influence Prosecution Manual (2007) ch. 8, p. 8 <http://www.sentencing.utah.gov/ProsecutionManual/chapter8.pdf> [as of Apr. 6, 2015] (Utah Prosecution Manual).) “Original research shows that if a suspect exhibits two or more of the clues, or cannot complete the test, the suspect’s BAC is likely to be above 0.10 [percent]. This criterion has been shown to be accurate 68 percent of the time.” (Ibid.)
In the “[o]ne-leg stand” test, after listening to the instructions, “the subject must raise one leg, either leg, with the foot approximately six inches off the ground, keeping raised foot parallel to the ground. While looking at the elevated foot, count out loud in the following manner:
“ ‘[0]ne thousand and one’, ‘one thousand and two’, ‘one thousand and three’ until told to stop. This divides the subject’s attention between balancing (standing on one foot) and small muscle control (counting out loud).
“The timing for a thirty-second period by the officer is an important part of the One-Leg Stand test. The original research has shown that many impaired subjects are able to stand on one leg for up to 25 seconds, but that few can do so for 30 seconds.
“One-Leg Stand is also administered and interpreted in a standardized manner. Officers carefully observe the suspeсt’s performance and look for four specific clues:
“• sways while balancing;
“• uses arms to balance;
“• hops;
“• puts foot down.
“Inability to complete the One-Leg Stand test occurs when the suspect:
“• puts the foot down three or more times, during the 30-second period;
“• cannot do the test.
“The original research shows that, when the suspect produces two or more clues or is unable to complete the test, it is likely that the BAC is above 0.10 [percent]. This criterion has been shown to be accurate 65 percent of the time.” (Utah Prosecution Manual, supra, ch. 8, at pp. 8-9 <http://www.sentencing.utah.gov/ProsecutionManual/chapter8.pdf> [as of Apr. 6, 2015].)
In the Romberg test, the driver is “asked to stand at attention, close his eyes, tilt his head back, and estimate the passage of 30 seconds.” (People v. Bejasa (2012)
Pursuant to section 23612, subdivision (h), a PAS is an investigative tool used to determine whether there is reasonable cause for arrest. “[A] preliminary test is ‘distinguished from the chemical testing of a driver’s blood, breath or urine contemplated by the implied consent law [citation] which is administered after the driver is arrested, [and is] sometimes referred to as
“A person who drives a motor vehicle is deemed to have given his or her consent to chemical testing of his or her blood or breath for the purpose of determining the alcoholic content of his or her blood, if lawfully arrested for an offense allegedly committed in violation of Section 23140, 23152, or 23153.” (§ 23612, subd. (a)(1)(A).) “The person shall be told that his or her failure to submit to, or the failure to complete, the required chemical testing will result in a fine, mandatory imprisonment if the person is convicted of a violation of Section 23152 or 23153, and . . . [¶] . . . [¶] . . . suspension or revocation of the person’s privilege to operate a motor vehicle . . . .” (§ 23612, subds. (a)(1)(D), (e).)
Evidence Code section 664 provides in part: “It is presumed that official duty has been regularly performed.” Applied in this context, “Evidence Code section 664 creates a rebuttable presumption that blood-alcohol test results recorded on official forms were obtained by following the regulations and guidelines of [California Code of Regulations] title 17. [Citations.] Test results from authorized laboratories, performed by public employees within the scope of their duties, are admissible under the public employee records exception to the hearsay rule. [Citations.] The recorded test results are presumptively valid and the DMV is not required to present additional foundational evidence. [Citation.] At this point, ‘faced with a report of chemical test results, the burden would be on the licensee to demonstrate that the test was not properly performed.’ ” (Shannon v. Gourley (2002)
Somewhat different rules apply to those under 21 years of age (§ 13557, subd. (b)(3)(C)(ii)), those driving commercial vehicles (id., subd. (b)(3)(C)(iv)), and those on probation for prior drunk driving convictions (id., subd. (b)(3)(C)(v)).
The Legislature might in the future wish to clarify whether it intends that the evidentiary presumption in section 23152 applies in administrative per se proceedings as well as in “prosecutions.”
Plaintiff notes the DMV hearing officer failed to submit to cross-examination so that it might be determined how she used the circumstantial еvidence to reach her conclusion to reject the testimony of expert witness Jay Williams. This failure, she argues, violated her right to due process of law. Although it seems extremely dubious that plaintiff’s due process rights require the hearing officer to testify and submit to plaintiff’s cross-examination, the record in any event reveals no objection on this ground or request that the officer testify. Accordingly, plaintiff forfeited this claim.
We are not here concerned with the less typical administrative per se provisions applicable to underage or commercial drivers, or those on probation for drunk driving (see §§ 13353.2, subd. (a)(2) [person under 21 years old with a BAC of 0.01 percent or greater], 13353.2, subd. (a)(3) [person driving a vehicle requiring a commercial driver’s license with a BAC of 0.04 percent or greater], 13353.2, subd. (a)(4) [person on probation for drunk driving with a BAC of 0.01 percent or greater]), or to adults who refuse to submit to, or complete, a chemical test as requested by a law enforcement officer (§ 13353) or to underage drivers (§ 13388) оr adults on probation for drunk driving (§ 13389) who refuse to submit to .a preliminary alcohol screening (§ 13353.1, subd. (a)).
See former section 23152, subdivision (b), as amended by Statutes 1982, chapter 1337, section 1, page 4961. The administrative per se law was enacted several years later, in 1998. (See Stats. 1998, ch. 118, § 4, pp. 757-758.)

Concurrence Opinion
Concurring. — I write separately to clarify the limited way in which evidence of behavioral impairment was relevant in this case to determining whether the driver’s blood-alcohol concentration (BAC) was 0.08 percent or higher at the time of arrest.
“ ‘Relevant evidence’ means evidence . . . having any tendency in reason to prove or disprove any disputed fact that is of consequence to the determination of the action.” (Evid. Code, § 210.) Evidence that a driver’s behavior is not impaired tends to prove that hеr BAC was below 0.08 percent because we can rationally surmise, given the Legislature’s choice of the 0.08 percent BAC threshold, that a BAC of 0.08 percent is associated with an unsafe degree of impairment. But the converse is not true. Absent foundational evidence, a driver’s impairment does not generally tend to show that her BAC was 0.08 percent or higher because we have no way of correlating a specific type or degree of impairment with a particular BAC in a close case. The fact that 0.08 percent BAC is a threshold associated with an unsafe degree of impairment does not imply that no impairment occurs below that threshold. Without evidence that correlates particular behavioral impairments with particular BAC levels, signs of impairment do not generally establish that it is more likely a driver’s BAC is 0.08 percent as opposed to 0.06 or 0.07 percent. In other words, signs of impairment do not generally have a tendency in reason to prove a BAC of 0.08 percent or greater.
Today’s opinion properly refrains from suggesting that there is a correlation between evidence of impairment, including field sobriety test results, and a BAC of 0.08 percent or greater. The court cites a study commissioned by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) reporting that at least some field sobriety tests, properly administered, may accurately measure a BAC of 0.08 percent or greater. (Stuster & Burns, Final Rep. to NHTSA, Validation of the Standardized Field Sobriety Test Battery at BACs Below 0.10 Percent (1998) p. i.) But today’s opinion is careful to express no view about the merits of these claims (maj. opn., ante, at pp. 1212-1213), and other courts have questioned them. In U.S. v. Horn (D.Md. 2002)
This lack of correlation between evidence of impairment and BAC does not mean that such evidence is always irrelevant. As the New Mexico Supreme Court has explained, “behavioral evidence by itself cannot be sufficient to show the required nexus between a BAC test and an earlier BAC. It may, however, have limited relevance when the factors that underlie the shape of the concentration time curve [showing the level of alcohol absorption over time] are subject to conflicting testimony.” (State v. Day (2008)
That is precisely how such evidence is relevant in this case. The results of the four tests of Ashley Jourdan Coffey’s BAC indicated that it was rising, and the parties offer competing explanations. Coffey argues that her BAC was in fact rising and that her BAC must have been below 0.08 percent at the time of her arrest. By contrast, the Attorney General attributes the rising BAC test results to the test’s margin of error (which would explain the 0.01 percent rise within three minutes between the first and second breath tests) and to the fact that the last two tests were blood tests rather than breath tests and thus produced slightly different results. The Attorney General asserts that the testimony of Coffey’s expert, Jay Williams, lacked key findings to support a rising BAC theory, such as when Coffey had her last drink before getting behind the wheel, her food intake, her weight, and other factors. As the Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) hearing officer concluded, Williams did not show that other experts in the scientific community had reached similar conclusions based on facts similar to those in this record.
Because the evidence of Coffey’s impairment was relevant in the limited way just described, and because the evidence is sufficient to support the determinations of the DMV hearing officer and the trial court that Coffey drove with a BAC at or above 0.08 percent, I concur in the judgment.
