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 neighborhood
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 having consumed alcohol
at all!
Dumbfounded, the officer said "I'll have to ask you to accompany me to
the Police station this breath-alyser equipment must be broken."
"I doubt it," said the man, "tonight I'm the designated decoy".
Pure Genius...
