Only an Aussie could pull this one!
Queensland Legend!!!
From the State where drunk driving is considered a sport, comes a true
story from the Sunshine Coast, Queensland.
Recently a routine police patrol parked outside a local neighbourhood
tavern. Late that 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 different 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 his 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 inches,
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 waited patiently all this time, now started
the patrol car, putting on the flashing lights, promptly pulled the man over
and carrier out a breathalyser test. To his amazement the breathalyser
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 down to the Police station, the
breath-analyser equipment must be broken."
"I doubt it", said the man, "tonight I'm the designated decoy".
True Story!!
