Had a neighbor who drank too much, and realizing he was too drunk to drive, pulled over and slept in the car.
The cop found him parked along the side of the road, saw the keys in the ignition (engine off) and him sleeping in the backseat. He got the DWI charge.
Next time, he and everyone he knows - now know that you are better off taking your chances and driving all the way home = drunk off your butt; rather than take the responsible decision and pull over and sleep it off.
Nice work, Officer Fife.
Sometimes, you just want to slap these people. This judge needs a swift knee to the groin a couple dozen times. If the car won’t start, and the keys are in the console - that car is nothing more than shelter from the weather.
Take a damn cab home, problem solved.
Kind of makes me wonder though. My 1978 Camaro project car doesn't have a drive shaft and is up on blocks while I do some tranny work on it. I usually have a beer or two while working on it.
These guys try and hit me for a DUI for that and the S will well and truly HTF.
