Day v. Commonwealth
Facts:
Defendant challenged a
judgment of the Circuit Court of Virginia Beach, which convicted him for the
traffic offense of drunk driving (DUI) in violation of Va. Code Ann. §
18.2-266. He argued that the trial court erred in not granting his proffered
jury instruction defining "operating a motor vehicle" and by
admitting his Department of Motor Vehicle (DMV) record into evidence at the
sentencing phase of his trial.

Holdings:
The
Virginia Court made the following holding:
- An "operator"
of a car is defined as any person who either drives or is in actual
physical control of a motor vehicle. Va. Code Ann. § 46.2-100.
"Operating" a car within the meaning of Va. Code Ann. § 18.2-266
not only includes the process of moving the vehicle from one place to
another, but also includes starting the engine, or manipulating the
mechanical or electrical equipment of the vehicle without actually putting
the car in motion. It means engaging the machinery of the vehicle which
alone, or in sequence, will activate the motive power of the vehicle.
