A trooper arrived on scene about 20 minutes later and found driver Christopher Spain, 38, sitting on the mower on the shoulder of the highway. The Florida Highway Patrol stated that the trooper immediately observed signs of 'impairment' in Spain, including pinpoint pupils, flushed skin, a dry mouth, and irritation on the inside of his nose.
The Florida Man also kept sniffling, spitting and clearing his throat while talking with the officer. The trooper then attempted to give him a field sobriety test multiple times, but Spain wasn’t having it and became uncooperative after the third attempt.
Spain was then arrested and charged with driving under the influence. He was booked into the Hernando County Jail and was released Friday afternoon on $500 bond.

"sniffling, spitting and clearing his throat.." My allergies do that to me when I cut the grass too.

ReplyDeleteA long time ago there was a feature movie about an old fart driving his lawn mower to a different town that was pretty far away. He did it sober.
