Too much/not enough: Pulling into a gas station in the 3900 block of Northlake Boulevard, a motorist’s vehicle drew the attention of several employees. In addition to make strange noises, the wounded SUV was missing a tire and riding on the rim.
Stopping by a pump, the driver entered the station, paid for some fuel, then when out and pumped it into the vehicle. He then pulled into a parking space and appeared to pass out.
Next, for reasons unknown, he regained consciousness, put the car in reverse and ran over the parking block before slamming into a concrete structure.
With bloodshot, watery eyes, slurred speech and a bloody lip, he began his meet and greet with the responding police officers.
With a mood that ranged from compliant to raging confrontation, he denied being involved in any collision. Though he admitted parking the SUV he exclaimed that it was “not like this.”
When asked how much he’d had to drink he said “Are you serious? Not enough.”
He attempted several times to explain the situation, but whatever influences he was under had rendered him unable to form full sentences without becoming agitated and changing the subject.
Invited to participate in a roadside sobriety test he stated, “I don’t care about what you’re doing, sir.”
After having the repercussions of refusing to participate explained, he said “It don’t matter what you want to do.” He said this three times.
He was arrested for DUI. He later refused to provide a breath sample.

“...but whatever influences he was under had rendered him unable to form full sentences without becoming agitated and changing the subject.”
In Canada the nice cop would have offered him a drink.
We need to ban this dangerous drug.
“In addition to make strange noises, the wounded SUV was missing a tire and riding on the rim”
Riding on the rim tireless would certainly tend to cause strange noises.
So I’ll tell you why I came Home Half Drunk.
I Run Out Money!
I worked with a guy decades ago who was stopped on suspicion of DUI. The cop told him to walk a certain way — one foot in front of the other, I think. The guy told the copy, “I couldn’t do that if I was sober!” It didn’t go well for him.
So the “Florida Man” titles have suddenly ended? Too bad.
Wisconsin too.
And maybe some cheese
And crackers as well.
Truth?!! Honey you can’t handle the Truth. Where’s the Vodka, screw the Vermouth? Oh, have you seen my ears? I’ve looked everywhere and can’t see them.
Florida Man strikes again. HooRaahhh!
They tried that once
Kinda sounds like Uncle Joe on a good day.
