All Information from the Discovery The Witness Statement as provided by Police Officer Callum James of the Los Santos Police Department firstly shows the reasoning for the charge VM04 - Disruptive Impeding or Blocking Travel during the first incident. Again, it becomes evident that the Defendant stopped his motor vehicle in a small traffic tunnel to impede and/or block the reasonable oncoming movement of traffic.
Further, in relation to the second incident, this statement indicates why the Defendant was charged with VM05 - Drunk, Impaired, or Distracted Driving during the second incident. It becomes evident that the Defendant was engaging in an activity which distracts the driver from driving safely through the use of his mobile phone.

Witness Statement
- Both charges are from two completeley seperate situations that have no relevance to each other so to make it easier I will break them down into two sections.
VM04 - Disruptive Impeding or Blocking Travel
Mr Williams received this charge following an investigation into his suspected involvement in obstructing justice. A pursuit was in progress of a vehicle that ended up taking us to the tunnel by the observatory. In the tunnel were multiple vehicles that were stopped in the middle of the road blocking us from continuing the pursuit Mr Williams was the driver of one of the vehicles blocking the road. Due to this the pursuit was lost. Mr Williams remained on scene still idling in his vehicle so he was pulled over, detained and transported to Mission Row. He was questioned by Detective Yukimura and due to doubt on his intention the charge for obstruction of justice was dropped and he was given VM04.
The next situation follows a few minutes after the conclusion of the above situation.
VM05 - Drunk, Impaired, or Distracted Driving
Myself and Officer Xavier were at the front of Mission Row when Officer Xavier pointed out to me that Mr Williams appeared to be on his mobile telephone whilst driving as he drove past us on Vespucci Blvd. He then failed to maintain lane by taking an illegal right turn onto Sinner St where he should of continued straight on. I got into my cruiser with Officer Xavier and followed him to the gas station by Central MD. Just before the turning to the gas station I drove up alongside Mr Williams and myself saw him on his mobile telephone. He was then pulled over and as he had commited a traffic violation whilst on his mobile telephone he was distracted whilst driving which lead to the charge of VM05 and his arrest.
For clarification when I say on his mobile telephone I mean one hand was off the steering wheel and he was holding the phone to his ear.
