A very NZ point of view
Only a person in Greymouth could think of this!
From the province where drunk driving used to be considered a sport in
our time, comes this story:
Recently a routine police patrol parked outside a bar in Herbert Street ,
Greymouth.
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 in which he tried his keys on five different
vehicles, the man managed to find his car and fall into it.
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 and 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, when his was the only car left in the parking lot, he pulled out
and drove slowly down the road. The police officer, having waited
patiently all this time, now
started up his patrol car, put on the flashing lights, promptly pulled the
man over and administered a Breathalyser test.
To his amazement, the Breathalyser indicated no evidence that the man had
consumed any alcohol at all! Dumbfounded, the officer said, "I'll have to
ask you to accompany me to the police station.
"This Breathalyser equipment must be broken."
"I doubt it," said the truly proud coaster. "Tonight I'm the designated decoy."
Excellent.....very very funny story
