James Flowers appeals his convictions for multiple counts of driving while license suspended and attempting to elude a pursuing police vehicle. He does not challenge the suspended license convictions, but contends the information and an instruction on the eluding charges were defective for omitting the element that he failed to immediately bring his vehicle to a stop. This court recently held that the term `immediately' is not an element of attempting to elude a police vehicle. State v. Tandecki, Wn. App., 84 P.3d 1262 (2004). Tandecki controls this case. Flowers' convictions are affirmed.
