The "DUI by consent" charges filed earlier this year against Ravens quarterback Steve McNair have been dropped, according to the Baltimore Sun. The dismissal came a day after his brother-in-law's DUI charges were reduced to reckless driving. McNair's brother-in-law, Jamie Cartwright (Cartwright!), was driving McNair's vehicle at the time he was arrested. The charges against McNair were based on a Tennessee law that imposes liability on an owner of a car who allows an inebriated person to drive it.
"I'm glad it's over," said McNair. "That's all that matters."
