Adventures in Drunk Driving

Not to go all public servicey on you, but don’t drink and drive. Especially if you have children in the car.

  • Call Greg Redux: Billings lawyer Michele Lynn Braukmann arrested with a .247 blood alcohol content (BAC), an open bottle of vodka and three kids in the car, tells officer not to arrest her because she has “the police chief on speeddial.”
  • And this supergenius was found slumped in his car with a BAC of .604 and two kids in the car. Keep in mind that any BAC above .4 is potentially lethal from the alcohol poisoning alone. (Hat tip: Ace of Spades.)
  • Strangely enough, that doesn’t even make the top 10 highest recorded blood alcohol levels. Number One was a South African sheep thief with a BAC of 1.41%.
  • No word on the BAC here, but you have to be pretty drunk to drive your car into a house.
  • Also, don’t drink and steer, like this Louisiana fisherman sentenced to 20 years for steering his commercial fishing boat into a dock, his fourth DUI offense.

      We were part timers. My partner, a local mortician, took to leaving his business card in the pockets of sleeping drunks.
