The front lawn of an Indiana courthouse was torn up when a woman who was allegedly driving drunk decided to do donuts in the grass, authorities said.
A 68-year-old woman was arrested for DUI and "numerous other charges" after she drove her car in circles on the Jennings County courthouse lawn, the sheriff's office said in a post on social media on Tuesday.
"If you’ve had a few too many margaritas with dinner, please don’t get behind the wheel, and definitely don’t do donuts on the courthouse lawn," authorities said in the post. "We encourage everyone to enjoy themselves responsibly and always make arrangements for a safe ride home if you’ve been drinking."
Jennings County Sheriff's Office also shared a surveillance video clip of the incident.
A silver sedan can be seen being driven erratically on the lawn, rustling up clouds of dust and dirt as it spins around.

Looks like the whisky is gone.
Or was it vodka?
“It was just one of those October Wednesdays, you know, where a person is likely to forget
both their manners and their dentures! It seemed like a fun idea at the time. Bucket List checked!”
Was that wrong? Should she have not done that? I gotta plead ignorance here. Back in Hazzard County we’d do that regular.
I can almost hear the "old lady laughter"...
Looks like she hasn’t had a sober day in a long, long time.
Looks more like 86....that’s a hard 68.
Ian McKellen can play her in the movie.

“Where’s the beef???”

Thanks for lol! 🤣
That doesn’t look like ‘margarita’ face.
Everclear?
I was expecting a Camaro, an Impala, a Chevelle, or something similar. I was disappointed in her vehicle choice at that age.
🤣
I drank in college. A lot. I know that it’s true that some people
Get mean, sexually aggressive, act out like this old bat. And yeah I’d sloppy. But also sleepy. I guess I’m blessed alcohol didn’t do any of those other things to me
“Why is all the rum gone”?0
LOL ... the pic does make it look like Grandma lost her dentures in her adventure!
