A True Story from the Jacksonville , FL , Police Dept.

A man goes to a party and has too much to drink. His friends plead with him
to let them take him home. He says no he only lives a mile away.

About five blocks from the party, the police pull him over for weaving and ask
him to get out of the car and walk the line. Just as he starts, the police
radio blares out a notice of a robbery taking place in a house just a block
away. The police tell the man to stay put, they will be right back and they
hop a fence and run down the street to the robbery.

The guy waits and waits and finally decides to drive home. When he gets
there, he tells his wife he is going to bed, and to tell anyone who might
come looking for him that he has the flu and has been in bed all day.

A few hours later the police knock on the door. They ask if Mr. Joe is there
and his wife says yes. They ask to see him and she replies that he is in bed
with the flu and has been so all day.

The police have his driver's license. They ask to see his car and she asks
why. They insist on seeing his car, so she takes them to the garage. She
opens the door. There sitting in the garage is the police car, with all its
lights still flashing.


True story: Told by the driver at his first AA meeting.

I heard about this from the Feds shortly after it happened, while in training as a Police Field-Sobriety-Testing Instructor (in '87). I was informed that a traffic collision had occured on the opposite side of the highway, causing the Highway Patrol officers to leave the drunk as they attended to the injured. I believe the event did occur in Florida.


I had a client who modified his car; ran a hose from the windshield washer pump, through the firewall, to under the dashboard. He then filled the reservoir with his favorite beverage and dispensed it at the touch of a button. He got three DUIs but never got busted for an open container.
