Where I work, it's not unusual for us to arrest DUIs that are in the .25 neighborhood, and I had one at a .36. I never gave that too much thought until a bunch of us cops got together one night and somebody brought a portable breath test. At the end of the night, when I was way, way past the point of being able to drive home, I was a .12. My buddy, who was at least as bad off as I, was .11. I can't imagine driving - or anything else, for that matter - at a .25. No, we didn't drive home.
Big Nor'easter Blizzard conditions, two guys separately walking through 60 MPH winds, lashing snow. State of Emergency everyone home , buttoned down. Cops stop to help them, both say they're OK, they just needed to get to liquor store.
good grief ...
ReplyDeleteThe best bit is that where he was arrested is a "dry City" you cannot purchase ANY alcohol in that suburb!
