Buzzed driving is drunk driving. Unless it’s two “small” shots of tequila. 🤡🚨

“consuming alcohol in a closed area.”

What does that mean? An area that’s closed? Trespassing and drinking while doing so?

But wait, it’s an “enclosed area”.

“...there was “enough evidence to prove” he consumed alcohol in an enclosed area, according to Asbury Park Press updates.”

What?

Sounds like a wink and a nod to me.

It was Lenny Bruce who once said that in the halls of justice the justice is in the halls.

“He blew .02. That’s the equivalent of a beer and a half. Do you really think people should be charged with DWI for that?”

How many hours later was that test done?

He said he had two shots. Most likely more and he was going to ride his bike?

They may have saved his life!

“Well drinking in the closet is kind of weird, but it shouldn’t be illegal.”

How did he get his HD inti the closet?

This was such a nothingburger.

Interesting how it was leaked the day after his dumb Jeep ad...I wonder if GM leaked it.

i think .08 is generally considered impaired driving. I’m not defending the guy because I like him. I DON’T!

I think that’s bullshit. Why would the cops even bother to charge him with DUI if he blew a .02?

“The musician, he added, smelled “strongly of alcohol” and had “glassy eyes.”

The National Park Service ranger reported conducting a series of field sobriety tests. Mr. Springsteen was “visibly swaying back and forth,” Ranger Hayes wrote, and took 45 steps during a walk-and-turn test rather than the 18 he’d been instructed to take.

Mr. Springsteen, 71, also “refused to provide a sample on the preliminary breath test,” the report states. That’s where it ends.

There is no mention of Mr. Springsteen’s blood-alcohol level. “

Granted ... we weren’t there and don’t have all the confirmed facts. However based on the report above I’d say he was drunk and the 0.02 claim is bogus ... or ... the test was taken much much later than the arrest event ... or ... he had taken other substances that made him appear drunk.

Also possible his case was fixed and taken care of.

Would you care to hear about all the others who are walking because they blew a .02% ?

Everyone or no one. There is this "equality" thing that seems to be popular, lately...

Uh yeah

He was arrested for intoxication and reckless driving as well as drinking in an area that was closed. If drinking a beer and a half makes you drive like a dumbass, then yeah. That how sober people and cops tend to get killed. Cant handle a beer without acting like Otis on Andy Griffith, then throw his ass in jail and take away his drivers license.

Leftist, criminal democrat judges always protect their own. Laws are any meant to destroy the enemies of the democrat party.

Talk about “White Privilege”. The judge is just as drunk as Bruce was, but it’s an “ethereal admiration” type of drunk.
