1997In People v. Graybehl (1944) 67 Cal.App.2d 210 [ 153 P.2d 771 ], the court held that in a former section 501 prosecution the unlawful act requirement was satisfied by evidence that the defendant drove his car with its windshield so dirty “ ‘. . . as to impair the driver’s vision,’ ” which is a violation of the Vehicle Code (§ 677). (67 Cal.App.2d at pp. 216-218.) In each of these cases, the equipment violation in question directly impaired the driver’s ability to drive the car in a manner so as to avoid an accident and proximately caused the injuries to a person other than the driver.
