— When would-be police enter training, they're taught to be prepared for just about anything. But it's a safe bet "naked drivers" don't show up anywhere on the academy syllabus.

Sparta police say a drunken, seemingly confused and almost completely nude woman crashed into a home's stone retaining wall early Friday morning.

At 12:53 a.m., a resident of Grove Terrace, in the Lake Mohawk section of the township, contacted police to say a white Volkswagen Jetta had just crashed into a stone retaining wall, then fled the scene, Sgt. John-Paul Beebe said.

She may have been mixing ambien and alcohol. That is a definite no no.

“I don’t know what it is with some people who like to strip down then they are drunk.”

Lowered inhibitions is a side effect. For some, that just means saying stupid things. For others it means going commando.

One of junior's friends' was handed down his father's cell phone. We had all heard tales of his mama getting nekkid during their weekend drinking parties but the pics left on the phone proved it. Poor kid, eeek.

Wasn’t Slick Willy wearing a leather jacket when Hillary got out of the hospital? I’ll bet she was “Willied”.

Well, of course she denied being completely naked -- she wasn't:
Officer Joseph Pensado found the vehicle, and stopped it on West Shore Trail, Beebee said. Inside, he found a surprise — the driver, 36-year-old Catherine Giaquinto of Warwick, N.Y., was wearing only an unzipped jacket, Beebe said.
Since she had the jacket on, she wasn't completely naked.

Alcohol? Could be Ambien. Or, someone could have slipped her a date rape drug. If you don't get a full dose you suggestable and do funny things. Hard to tell without more information and possibly a blood test.

Is it a medical condition, is she diabetic? (Some guy in Atlanta was beaten to death during a diabetic episode because they thought he was drunk...OK to beat a drunk driver to death in Atlanta I guess.) A concussion?

These are all things the police should really be trained to at consider when they encounter a “Drunk driver.” It may be someone who isn't drunk and needs their help.

Just looking at it from a different viewpoint.

Where can I find a woman,
Where can I find a woman like that
And I’m lookin’ in the mirror all the time,
Wondering what she don’t see in me
I’ve been funny ...

I don't know why not. It's a classic scenario.
