Saw this on the news yesterday. This might qualify for an I-am-an-idiot award …
A main in Akron, Ohio gets arrested for drunk driving during the day. Not being able to drive properly, tests a 1.1 on the breathalyzer, the police man throws him in jail. He gets out hours later being bailed out by his girlfriend.
The man walks into the police parking lot, jumps into his girlfriend’s car and proceeds to slowly drive off. Several policemen watching him get into his car with his girlfriend and drive off, start to flag him down and book him again. The guy ends up getting booked twice in one day for drunk driving.
He is scheduled to be in court with 2 counts of drunken driving charges and his girlfriend was booked/ charged with willingly allowing him to drive drunk. Guess he didn’t learn his lesson the first time round.

He would only be a candidate for the Darwin Awards if he caused his own death during the incident.
This just qualifies him as an idiot.

It’s idiots like his girlfriend that scare me more. She knowingly let him drive drunk - his excuse is just being an ass, a drunk one whose better judgement is blurred - what’s her excuse
