That is not a silver bullet or a "get out of jail free" card. The State is required to prove three things beyond a reasonable doubt: a. that you were operating (or otherwise in physical control) of a motor vehicle; b. that you were on a public street, highway, road, parking lot or other premises generally frequented by the public at large; c. that you were under the influence to the extent that it affected your ability to operate a motor vehicle safely. There is no requirement that the officer correctly note the tag number of the vehicle. At the same time, if you can show that the arresting officer made multiple errors that may affect his credibility.
