Court improperly rescinded statutory summary suspension in finding that Defendant was not arrested for DUI, because officer had handwritten on ticket that offense was "Leaving Scene of Accident--Damage Only"). Handwriting was a scrivener's error, and pre-printed form stated "DUI Criminal Complaint" and made several references to DUI; and officer's sworn report noted Defendant's refusal to submit to breath test referred to DUI statute. (JORGENSEN and HUTCHINSON, concurring.)
