– Authorities say a man accused of riding a horse on a freeway in Southern California was arrested for driving under the influence.
The California Highway Patrol says Luis Perez of Placentia had a blood-alcohol level of more than double the legal limit when they allege he took his horse on the 91 Freeway.
“We get a chuckle out of the interesting situations we encounter from time to time, but one thing the CHP does not do is ‘horse’ around with DUI,” the CHP said on its Twitter account.

Riding a horse in what manner?
Whatever floats one’s boat :)
probably passing everyone.
...was gonna go snarky and type Poncho
Villa?....didn’t have to
“DUI”?
Sorry, but unless there’s a law against RUI then this should just be public intoxication. ;)
it will be interesting to find out whether this ticket can stick or not
maybe the horse has to be drunk?
In rural New Mexico it’s not uncommon. The horse knows it’s way home.
They set his bail at $50,000. Must be more to the story.
LOL
Yeah I mean it’s illegal to ride a horse on the freeway to begin with.
So yeah, he did something stupid and illegal while drunk, but was that drunk driving?!?!
Nice!
(Now, if the horse is under the influence, they should call that "HUI".)
Trying to get away from his “nag”ging wife?
If he’d “ponied” up for an Uber, this wouldn’t have happened.
A real night”mare”
The CHP went in with guns drawn, b/c they heard he was armed with a “colt.”
The police report said it all started over a disagreement with his “neigh”bor.
Lonely are the Brave
he should get a good lawyer..
Three friends, a Rabbi, a Hindu holy man and a lawyer, had car trouble in the countryside and asked to spend the night with a farmer.
The farmer said, “There might be a problem; you see, I only have room for two to sleep, so one of you must sleep in the barn.” “No problem,” chimed the Rabbi, “My people wandered in the desert for forty years, I am humble enough to sleep in the barn for an evening in their memory.” With that he departed to the barn and the others bedded down for the night.
Moments later a knock was heard at the door; the farmer opened the door. There stood the Rabbi from the barn. “What’s wrong?” asked the farmer. He replied, “I am grateful to you, good sir, but I can’t sleep in the barn. There is a pig in the barn and my faith believes that is an unclean animal.”
His Hindu friend agreed to swap places with him. But a few minutes later the same scene reoccurred. There was a knock on the door. “What’s wrong, now?” the farmer asked. The Hindu holy man replied, “I too am grateful for your helping us out but there is a cow in the barn and in my country cows are considered sacred. I can’t sleep on holy ground!”
Well, that left only the lawyer to make the change. He grumbled and complained, but went out to the barn.
Moments later there was another knock on the farmers door.
Frustrated and tired, the farmer opened the door, and there stood...
The pig and the cow.
Good flick.
If you’re not married, you seriously need to date more..
The horse knows the way so, how do you charge him with DUO? /S....maybe...
Did they check the horse?
The horse probably pooped on the road. Unless you’re an illegal alien in San Fransisco that’s probably still taken seriously.
