Hey, I know DWI is serious business but at least the LEO has a sense of humor. Should I ever get stopped (been about 50 years since last time) I would like it to be a LEO like him. That was pretty funny.
I'm doing that next time I get pulled over, now I just need to figure out how to seem drunk enough to get breath tested. How do you get the smell of alcohol on your breath without actually drinking?

The place I work the Intoxilyzer is in the jail. Somewhere along the way I don't think it will be so funny.
DWI has rightfully become a serious crime, not a joke, but that one is pretty good... I had to run it twice to fully appreciate it.
Reminds me of a situation back in college with a friend. We were droppedoff at the local watering hole (planned a big night, didn't want a car around) and proceeded with said plan. We then started hoofing the 2 miles or so to our Fraternity House. Of course, it was February in Maine, soyou can imagin it was a bit chilly. A cruiser from the town pulled up,asked us where we were headed, if we had a car, etc., my buddy had recently been arrested for DUI and was still a bit testy about it. The Officer asked us for ID (wanted to make sure we were of age) and then asked us if we wanted a ride...
Before I could answer, my semi-coherent pal asked him, "To Where ?", (since the last ride he had from a cop was to jail), which broke up both me and the Officer... After he caught his breath, he said "home"...
I sure hope there are still some quality guys like that out there, with some sense and a bit of humor!

Sounds Polish...Somewhat slavic in the language...
The "officer" who had the portable breathalizer had no duty belt on, so in a way, even though it was funny, it appears to be staged...
I liked it...
