Do Not Drink And Drive
With New Year's Eve fast approaching let me remind all members to Drink Responsibly and do not take to the road if you have been drinking.
In the event you do, please be aware the police are using a "sure fire" new sobriety test. You may wish to practice, here's a short video to show the test: http://www.darlugo.com/?id=749&ext=2

That'll do it.

He hit his head so hard on the ground that we could hear it. That made me wince in pain, just thinking about it. [smiley=nervous.gif]
Mind you, the thought of anyone getting behind the wheel of a vehicle under the influence hurts me much more. >:(

And the drunk will sue the cops for forcing or encouraging him in to the position of injuring himself under color of authority.....

Weird stuff happens that no one can reasonably be expected to have considered beforehand. But sometimes folks just get dumb....
Sometimes it works out in your favor too though Rog. 8 or 9 years ago (give or take a bit) I was out playing a bit in a 57 vette. Coming home about 1:00 AM. Then, of course, on a completely dark and long and straight stretch of state road cherries are flashing about a 1/4 mile behind me.
I stop. Trooper walks up and asks (in a not at all friendly tone of voice), "Is there a reason I clocked you at 92 in a 55 mile an hour zone." Admittedly, my first inclination was to answer "because you pulled the trigger on the radar gun." But I thought better of it.
The Trooper goes back to his car, runs my drivers license, then comes back up and says "please step back and take a seat in the front of my car." So he's going to write me a probably rather large ticket.
It's dark outside. Really dark. It's a two lane road. Shoulders aren't huge. His patrol car is pretty good sized. Once you step past the headlights it is damn dark on the passenger side of his car.
What neither of is knew beforehand was that just off the shoulder was a pretty deep culvert. We also didn't know that the grasses grown up in might it look (at least at night) like it was a level surface. So I step around his car and (entirely on his direction) go ass over tea kettle down in to rocks, debris, tin cans, dead rodentia, muck and other sundry things collected in a roughly four feet deep ditch on the side of a two lane road.
He didn't give me the ticket though.

I hear you. Did I tell you about comin' home in the SRT10 a month ago and there's some a$$ on my a$$ so I pull to the right lane and let him go by so he now is 10 feet behind the guy I was behind on the freeway doing 70 in a 60?
Well I'm in a truck, he's in a Ford 3/4 ton 4X4, so why not play?
When the guy in front of him clears he steps it up, so do I, so does he, so do I......I'm in 4th doing about 95 when we clear the last car for awhile in the right lane so I feather it up to about 110 and miss my shift to 5th, no worries drop to fourth punch it never getting off his hip and pull him, into fifth at about 125 and pulling away (600 hp does come in handy) [smiley=oops.gif] that's when he lights me up.
Holy crap, throw away the keys, the house the truck ah hell I'm screwed. I pull to the right lane and he never slows down.....to this day I have no idea if he was customs, FBI, Fish and Game, unmarked Stater.....no clue.
I didn't get a ticket either.......just an instant ulcer. I took the back roads home from there after I hit the first exit that he passed.

That is outstanding Rog [smiley=mango.gif] ! You've got to know that, no matter what his intentions, the guy was just about to bust at the thought of your reaction when he hit the lights. You thought you were playing but he was having all the fun.
My all time favorite traffic incident was in the same old Corvette I mentioned above though. One very cool cop. I was working late one night, in a bad mood, finished up and decided to go for a drive. Headed west. You get west of me in to Kansas and it gets long and straight and see-forever very quickly.
I was a couple hours in to the little drive, about 1:00 AM, and pushing the little 283 in that fuel injected 57 for most of what it was worth. Between 110 and 115 for a bit and just letting my few hairs blow in the wind to finish unwinding from the day. Then, sure enough, a long long way behind me up come the cherries.
First thought was that he was too far behind me, can outrun him and hide someplace in the dark. But first thoughts are, well......; first thoughts. So I pull it over and wait for him.
Then this large economy sized county patrolman walks up beside the little car. This guy is 6'6" or better. Looks down and says something pretty much like, "How ya doin' tonight sir. Been trailing you for a little bit but the county line is coming up right away. The boys in the next county, well, they frown on this stuff so I wanted to get you stopped before you got there."
Stood at the side of the road and talked cars with this guy for a half hour or more before turning it around and heading back toward home. Definitely the best road side stop I ever had.

You gotta love that.
I had an old time State Patrol let me go one time too, boy was my ex pissed off. She was with me and had gotten a ticket the week before.

That guy wasn't toooo drunk, it still hurt when he hit his face on the ashpalt!!!!! Any good police officer would have made a judgement call and saw that the guy was in pain and thus not toooo intoxicated!!!!!
[smiley=oops.gif] Lock him up!!!!! [smiley=oops.gif] As long as it wasn't me or anyone else I know!!!

I guess the lines painted on the parking lot weren't good enough to follow so he decided to put down masking tape [smiley=nixweiss.gif] What the hell is that? Out,Q

I think that's the new sobriety test. Someone most likely sued stating the painted line could mot be certified to be straight, ok, lay down a taped line and allow the suspect to participate.
Ever try to bend over like that after one too many? I bet that isn't the first face plant.
Next lawsuit will be for police brutality.

What in the sam hill is this "step bump, step bump bump"? I'm not sure how the heck to react to that sitting here sober as a judge. Good grief.
