Recently a routine police patrol parked outside a bar in Austin, TX. After
last call, the officer noticed a man leaving the bar so intoxicated that he
could barely walk. The man stumbled around the parking lot for a few
minutes, with the officer quietly observing. After what seemed an eternity
and trying his keys on five different vehicles, the man managed to find his
car, which he fell into. He sat 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 summer night) -- flicked
the blinkers on, then off a couple of times, honked the horn and then
switched on the lights. He moved the vehicle forward a few inches, reversed
a little and then remained still for a few more minutes as some more of the
other patrons vehicles left.
At last, the parking lot empty, he pulled out of the parking lot 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,
and promptly pulled the man over and carried out a Breathalyzer test.
To his amazement, the Breathalyzer indicated no evidence of the man having
consumed any alcohol at all!! Dumbfounded, the officer said, "I'll have to
ask you to accompany me to the police station. This Breathalyzer equipment
must be broken."
"I doubt it," said the truly proud Cowboy. "Tonight, I'm the Designated
Decoy."
Look how many true drunks this idiot let drive off - if he was a real cop with real concerns his duty was to keep the man off the street with this much information....
What a DUFUS!
