NEEDHAM, Mass. – A Massachusetts man may wish he had breakfast in bed instead of in his car. Police said a man who was stopped for erratic driving on Central Avenue last week was eating a bowl of cereal and milk while he drove. He told officers he was hungry.

...

Schlittler didn't know what kind of cereal the driver was eating.

I hope it wasn't Cheerios.

No, wait, maybe he can qualify for a drug diversion program if it is Cheerios.

I was going to ask if it was CHeerios.....LOL

That police lieutenant has one heckuva name.

[Pistolshot]

His nickname is ‘Little Crapper’.

lol.. it almost reads like a scene from the next Police Academy

Misleading headline. He wasn't driving under the influence of cereal, he was eating while driving. To suggest that the ingestion of cereal would impair driving is ridiculous. But, if you are doing something like eating, while you are driving, and it impairs your driving, don't complain if you get stopped for it.

LOL! Oh no...I might be guilty too. I had a Honey nut Cheerios bar on the way to work...I hope I don’t get a urine test! Will the Moms that carry little baggies of cheerios around be charged with distribution?? Or perhaps Trafficking? Insane world we live in...

i grew up in the town next to Needham.
It used to be a good town until property values skyrocketed and all of the original residents moved out to capatalize on their new found wealth.

Now Needham is chock full of Moonbats.

There are ways to do this right.

Buy a pint of milk.
Take a couple of big slugs.
Add cereal directly to the carton.
Pinch carton closed and shake vigorously.
Reopen carton and enjoy your portable breakfast.

Note: Be sure to use a cereal that floats on the milk a bit, and does not need supplemenart sugar. Do NOT try this with shredded wheat.

That’s Life!

He was undercover on a case...3 women found dead in their bathtubs in the last month, the tubs filled with Cheerios. Cops are now looking for a cereal killer.

[TheBattman]

At least he wasn’t talking on a cell phone... those things cause accidents...

[stainlessbanner]

You don’t know Schittler!

[Ditter]

I figured he was rushing home because the bran had started to work.

Fruit Loops. Had to be Fruit Loops.

When cereal is outlawed, only outlaws will have cereal.
