Busted at the bar

Motorized-bar-stool1Well, not quite.  He had left the bar, but was still on his barstool….

Ohio police received a seemingly normal report about an accident in a nearby area. Upon arriving on the scene the officers discovered that an intoxicated man had crashed his motorized bar stool. After getting over the initial shock that someone actually conceived this contraption, the police determined that the stool’s operator was intoxicated. Kile Wygle downed fifteen brews before hopping on to his lawnmower-powered bar stool, which he claimed could reach speeds of up to 38 mph. Wygle has entered a plea of not guilty and has requested a jury trial; perhaps he believes that he can argue he was not driving a vehicle in the first place.

  1. If you are on a moving object either powered by yourself, a motor, or gravity, the wind, or magical dust given to you by the ghost of Timothy Leary, you can get a DUI if you operate this craft while legally drunk.

    But wouldn’t that be illegally drunk? I mean if you’re drunk, and you’re legal, what’s the problem officar?
