2026The Ohio Supreme Court held in Dayton v. Erickson, 76 Ohio St.3d 3 (1996), that “where an officer has an articulable reasonable suspicion or probable cause to stop a motorist for any criminal violation, including a minor traffic violation, the stop is constitutionally valid regardless of the officer’s underlying subjective intent or motivation for stopping the vehicle in question.” Id. at 11-12 .

2026Whether a defendant can be or is ultimately convicted of the underlying offense giving rise to the stop resulting in an OVI charge “is not determinative of whether the officer acted reasonably in stopping and citing him for that offense.” Bowling Green v. Godwin, 2006-Ohio-3563 , ¶ 15. {¶35} To the extent that Clay argues that “not every minor traffic infraction requires an officer to perform a traffic stop,” it has been held that a stop is valid “where an officer has an articulable reasonable suspicion or probable cause to stop a motorist for any criminal violation, including a minor traffic
