Appea 1 from a judgment of the Supreme Court, Monroe County (Joseph D. Valentino, J.), rendered January 14, 2011. The judgment convicted defendant, upon a jury verdict, of vehicular assault in the second degree, driving while ability impaired by drugs (two counts) and driving while ability impaired by the combined influence of drugs or of alcohol and any drug or drugs.
It is hereby ordered that the judgment so appealed from is unanimously affirmed.
Defendant contends that the warrant application for a court-ordered blood test was insufficient because it failed to identify the source of its information. We reject that contention. “[A]n application for a court-ordered blood test may contain hearsay and double hearsay” as long as the application “disclose [s] that it is supported by hearsay and identifies] the source or sources of the hearsay” (People v Freeman, 46 AD3d 1375, 1377 [2007], lv denied 10 NY3d 840 [2008]). Here, the warrant application and supporting affidavit both stated that they were based on the observations of the police officer who responded to the scene of the accident. We reject defendant’s further contention that the warrant application was insufficient because it failed to provide sufficient facts to support the conclusion that a passenger in defendant’s vehicle “suffered serious physical injury” as required by Vehicle and Traffic Law § 1194 (3) (b) (1). The warrant application stated that a passenger in the vehicle had been “seriously injured” inasmuch as he had sustained lacerations to the head, was trapped inside the vehicle, and needed to be “[m]ercy [¶] lighted” to a hospital. We conclude that those statements are sufficient to meet the requirements of section 1194 (3) (b) (1).
Defendant contends that the court erred in admitting testimony that she refused to submit to a chemical test and in instructing the jury regarding that refusal. Those contentions are not preserved for our review (see CPL 470.05 [2]). In any event, those contentions lack merit. Defendant’s refusal to take
We reject defendant’s further contention that the police lacked probable cause to arrest her. To arrest defendant under Vehicle and Traffic Law § 1192, it was necessary for the arresting officer to have evidence that it was “more probable than not that defendant [was] actually impaired” (People v Vandover, 20 NY3d 235, 239 [2012]). Here, the arresting officer had such evidence. He was informed by witnesses that defendant’s vehicle was traveling at a high rate of speed before leaving the roadway and rolling over multiple times. In addition, defendant provided the officer with inconsistent explanations regarding how the accident occurred, and the officer observed that defendant was unsteady on her feet. Finally, defendant admitted to the officer that she had consumed alcohol approximately three hours prior to the accident, and an Aleo-Sensor test at the scene returned a positive result (see People v Kulk, 103 AD3d 1038, 1040 [2013], lv denied 22 NY3d 956 [2013]).
