Legal Question in DUI Law in Minnesota

Re: Physical control of a motor vehicle

A charge is a claim or accusation. Could it be possible? Sure. I had a case similar to this. If this has not happened yet, avoid the risk. If it has already happened, if I have a case like this, one thing I look at is whether the parked motorhome was merely a shelter, as well as whether it was operable as a motor vehicle at the time -- among numerous other potential defense issues.

Re: Physical control of a motor vehicle

The short answer is, yes -- if the motorhome is operable, is on a street or parking lot, and is not fixed to its location. If you are at a designated campsite, (eg, a KOA with hookups) you would not likely be charged. But if the vehicle is on a street or parking lot, and can be moved, you are in possession and control of the vehicle as a matter of law and could be charged.
