Tallahassee,FL : Estates man says at his DUI manslaughter trial he 'felt all right to drive' on June, Friday 16th 2017

A Golden Gate Estates man, accused of causing a fatal three-car crash, testified Friday at his DUI manslaughter trial that he "felt all right to drive" when asked why he got behind the wheel that evening.

Prosecutors said Rene Miles, 42, was speeding and driving drunk when he rear-ended a Dodge Durango that then careened across the median and slammed into a minivan.

The crash on Golden Gate Boulevard near 27th Street Southwest in the Estates injured three and killed James "Cecil" Riner, a father of four.

Miles, who was not wearing a seat belt, was not hurt. Prosecutors said he never called 911, didn’t render aid and didn’t stop in a reasonable place.
