Opinion of the Court
PER CURIAM.

PER CURIAM.

Plaintiff broker appeals from an order assessing attorney’s fees against the broker pursuant to section 57.105, Florida Statutes (1985), after the entry of a summary judgment in favor of defendant in the broker’s suit for a commission. We agree with appellant that it was improper to award attorney’s fees in this case. See Whitten v. Progressive Casualty Insurance Co., 410 So. 2d 501 (Fla.1982); Keyes Company v. Friedes, 497 So. 2d 916 (Fla. 3d DCA 1986).

Reversed.

We are persuaded by the reasoning of our sister court in State v. Williams, 516 So. 2d 1081 (Fla. 2d DCA 1987), that Bertine obviates the Miller requirement that an arrested driver be offered an alternative to impoundment prior to police conducting an inventory search of the driver’s vehicle.
