¶1We reverse and remand for a new trial. It was error to admit trial testimony as to a horizontal gaze nystagmus test performed by the arresting officer without laying a predicate for its admission as scientific evidence. See State v. Meador, 674 So.2d 826 (Fla. 4th DCA 1996); Melvin v. State, 677 So.2d 1317 (Fla. 4th DCA 1996).
