Can you tell me what "in the person's immediate possession" in section (c) of DWI includes?

Thanks.

In a DWI case with an open container, does the container need to be collected to be considered evidence?

My son was arrested on 5/11/08 for DWI. He was sitting parked in his car behind the wheel with the ignition running at the entrance gate of an apartment complex when the officer arrived. Can this be considered driving while intoxicated if he was not actually driving at the time and is parked on the grounds of an apartment complex a "public" place? Isn't the driveway/entrance of an apartment complex "private" property and not "public" property?
