Only a Kentuckian could think of this .... from the county where drunk
driving is considered a sport, comes this true story.
Recently a routine police patrol parked outside a bar in Mt.Sterling
Ky. After last call the officer noticed a man leaving the bar so
intoxicated that he could barely walk. The man stumbled around the
parking lot for a few minutes, with the officer quietly observing.
After what seemed an eternity and trying his keys on five different
vehicles, the man managed to find his car which he fell into. He sat
there for a few minutes as a number of other patrons left the bar and
drove off.
Finally he started the car, switched the wipers on and off (it was a
fine, dry summer night) -- flicke d the blinkers on, then off a couple
of times, honked the horn and then switched on the lights. He moved the
vehicle forward a few inches, reversed a little and then remained still
for a few more minutes as some more of the other patron vehicles left.
At last, the parking lot empty, he pulled out of the parking lot and
started to drive slowly down the road.
The police officer, having patiently waited all this time, now started
up the patrol car, put on the flashing lights, and promptly pulled the
man over and carried out a breathalyzer test. To his amazement the
breathalyzer indicated no evidence of the man having consumed any
alcohol at all! Dumbfounded, the officer said, "I'll have to ask you to
accompany me to the police station. This breathalyzer equipment must be
broken."
"I doubt it," said the truly proud Kentuck ian.
"Tonight I'm the designated decoy."
