The Aussie Drink Driver (True Story)

Drink Driving... THIS is absolutely brilliant!

Only an Aussie could pull this one off!


>From the state where drink driving is considered a sport, comes a true

story from the Sunshine Coast, Queensland.
Recently a routine police patrol parked outside a local neighbourhood
tavern. Late in the evening the officer noticed a man leaving the bar so
intoxicated that he could barely walk.

The man stumbled around the car park for a few minutes, with the officer
quietly observing. After what seemed an eternity and trying his keys on
five vehicles, the man managed to find his car, which he fell into. He was
there for a few minutes as a number
of other patrons left the bar and drove off. Finally he started the car,
switched the wipers on and off (it was a fine dry night),
flicked the indicators on, then off, tooted the horn and then switched on
the lights.

He moved the vehicle forward a few cm, reversed a little and then remained
stationary for a few more minutes as some more
vehicles left.

At last he pulled out of the car park and started to drive slowly down the
road. The police officer, having patiently
waited all this time, now started up the patrol car, put on the flashing
lights, promptly pulled the man over and carried out a
breathalyser test.

To his amazement the breathalyser indicated no evidence of the man's
intoxication.

The police officer said 'I'll have to ask you to accompany me to the Police
station - this breathalyser equipment must be
broken.'

'I doubt it,' said the man, 'tonight I'm the designated decoy'.
