Juggling College Student Proves He Wasn't Driving Drunk

Police dash cam video shows this driver proving beyond a
shadow of a doubt he wasn't drinking and driving by
putting on a juggling demonstration. 

You know the police do this all the time.

They see a young man, driving slowly late at night, with a brake light out. At one point he swerves a bit toward the curb.

Is this a drunken driver?

Reasonable question.

Which is why Sgt. Keith McKay of the Univeristy of Central Arkansas campus police pulled over a student  named Blayk Puckett recently.

It turned out Puckett wasn't drunk. He knew he had a broken tail light and was driving slowly because he didn't want to get pulled over the police.

But.... busted. Puckett was pulled over

Once he stopped Puckett, McKay quickly figured out that Puckett hadn't been drinking.. Even so, the student decided to really prove he was sober.

So he got his gear out of the car and started juggling.  

The cops should have guessed this would happen. Puckett's vanity license plate is "JUGGLER."

Body and dash cam video shows McKay coaxing Puckett into doing the "sobriety" demonstration.

"No pressure, I want you to know, you don't have to," McKay says in the police video. But Puckett was game and went at it with the juggling.

As Puckett began, McKay is heard saying, "This is gonna be awesome. You just made my night, I gotta tell you."

After the juggling demonstration, police let Puckett go with no ticket, as he promised to get his brake light fixed.

Here's the police video of the incident.

Drunk Tractor Trailer Driver Tries To Change Pants While Traveling Vermont Highway

Police said this guy crashed his tractor trailer rig on
a Vermont Interstate highway while changing his pants,
drunk and driving at 63 mph.  

In one of the stupidest traffic crashes I've ever heard of, and one thankfully in which nobody was seriously injured, a tractor trailer truck rolled over and crashed on Interstate 89 in Williston, Vermont this week.

The tractor trailer driver, Allen R. Johnson Sr. was drunk, Vermont State Police said, as he traveled along Interstate 89 at aboug 63 mph. While doing so, he was changing his pants. (!!!)

Of course, when you're changing your pants while driving a tractor trailer drunk, bad things will happen, and he tipped over onto the side of the highway. Luckily he hit nobody else, and Johnson suffered just minor injuries.

It is unclear why Johnson picked that moment to change his pants. There is a rest area very close to the crash site where motorists often stop to take breaks. The rest area has a large parking lot where tractor trailer drivers often park to eat, sleep, or, yes, change clothes.

Not sure why he didn't just go to the rest area to change his pants. And we don't know why it was important for him to change his trousers at that very moment. Not that I'm anxious to find out.

In any event, Johnson was charged with driving a commercial vehicle under the influence and negligent operation.

Sadly, the section of Interstate 89 in Vermont is very close to the site of a wrong way driver crash that killed five teenagers last month.
