Facts

Vejvoda (D) was convicted of drunk driving and received an enhanced sentence because it was his second conviction. The testimony at trial was given by an Edwards, a police officer who observed D's car at 7th and Vine and then later approached D's car on Oak. The officer never identified the city or county where he observed or apprehended D. D was convicted and appealed contending the evidence was not sufficient to sustain his conviction in that the state failed to prove that Hall County was the venue for his trial in that the court improperly took judicial notice that the locations mentioned by the officer were within Hall County.
