The defendant failed to preserve this claim at trial and requests review under the constitutional bypass doctrine of Evans-Golding. 10 Because the record is adequate for review and the claim is of constitutional magnitude; see State v. Jackson, 34 Conn. App. 599, 605-606 , 642 A.2d 738 , cert. granted, 231 Conn. 917 , 648 A.2d 165 (1994); we turn to consideration of whether the alleged constitutional violation clearly exists and whether it deprived the defendant of a fair trial.

The defendant’s petition for certification for appeal from the Appellate Court, 36 Conn. App. 76 (AC 12377), is granted, limited to the following issue:

“Did the Appellate Court correctly hold that harmless error occurred when the trial court improperly admitted horizontal gaze nystagmus test results and improperly allowed the jury to hear evidence that if eye jerking occurs prior to a forty-five degree angle a subject is more than likely above the legal limit of 0.10 of one percent for intoxication in a trial under General Statutes § 14-227a (a) (1)?”
