Opinion
December 19, 1988
Appeal from the County Court, Suffolk County (Namm, J.).
Ordered that the judgment is affirmed.
We agree with the hearing court's determination that the police officer properly stopped the vehicle in which the defendant was a passenger because of an existing traffic violation (see, People v Ingle, 36 N.Y.2d 413, 414-415).
We have considered the defendant's remaining contentions and find them to be without merit. Mangano, J.P., Bracken, Kunzeman and Balletta, JJ., concur.
