ALCOHOL MAY HAVE BEEN INVOLVED
When the officer woke him up and asked him where he was, the man answered that he was in Destin, although he was actually on College Boulevard in Niceville.
When asked to produce his driver's license, he handed the officer two different pairs of sunglasses and an empty box of condoms. Then, he gave the officer a half-full cold Fosters beer from the center console, telling him that he'd opened it earlier but hadn't drunk much of it.
(Thanks to Siouxie)
But did the officer drink the Fosters? That's the unasked question!

Tough call: should he be sent a Florida Driver's License?

I would agree that he needs a Florida driver's license, but he already probably has one. Somewhere...

NICEVILLE - A 20-year-old Niceville man was arrested for driving while intoxicated after he was found asleep at the wheel by the side of the road...
I don't want to get technical but, if he was asleep, he wasn't DRIVING, no?? That takes a special kind of
idiotskill.Sleep driving?

Siouxie, if you pull over to sleep one off, they can still write you for DUI. That's ridiculous and forgoes everything we know and love about getting off on a technicality!

Well that blows.

He probably also doesn't remember how much fun he had using up all those condoms.

Good thing he woke up in Niceville. They might have thrown the book at him in Meanville (PA)!

My sis, who used to be a FL cop, told me during her Academy days, to always keep a bottle of booze under your seat. If you get stopped, get out, chug out of the bottle, and say that they can't prove you were drunk BEFORE you were stopped. Turns out, that doesn't work either. Sigh...
