re: Let's hear your DUI check stories

I drive through one in golden meadow with a truck slam full of beer at 18 years old. I hadn't drank anything but the 3 dudes riding with me had been drinking all day and my boat had an expired license plate.

Drove through at 9:59 and the lady said they were starting with the car behind me. Never had to roll down my windo past half way

There were probably 30 empties in my truck and I guess 4 or 5 cases in the ice chest.

Couple months ago, I had 3 beers at the bulldog and get followed coming out the parking lot but didn't notice.

I almost missed my turn so I forgot to use my turn signal (no one on the road besides the cop apparently), he follows me until I get down to a gas station. It was pint night so I literally had all three glasses of beer in my car, but he told me to get out the car and walk up to his vehicle

Asks me a couple usual questions, have you been drinking, where you going, coming from etc. I could literally see my house from where we were and pointed to it

I'm not drunk mind you (well unless you are a MAAD nazi that considers everyone drunk. 3 beers over 4 hours Isnt drunk), but I as so fricking nervous that I am stumbling over my words and over explaining everything. I'm thinking to myself "you stupid frick, you are about to be arrested Bexause you sound like an idiot"

Guy wants me to do some sobriety tests, and I clumsily ask him to make sure he does it right because I have failed a sobriety test 100 percent sober before.

He does the check and says "well, you failed". And I feel my penis go back inside of my body and have a blank dumbass look on my face

Then he goes, with no voice inflection at all, "nah I'm just kidding. Watch your turn signals and have a good night"


It took me like 3 hours to decompress after that, least funny joke I've ever heard

So it was more of " I am dumb arse who shouldn't be using a cell phone will driving" issue? Also, if you get a DUI in today's world you're a frigging idiot.

Me and some of the other neighbors have formed a volunteer group that works hand in hand with local law enforcement to stop and check drivers within the four walls of our neighborhood if we suspect drunk driving. We have cart blanch to stop anyone we suspect during our shifts on the weekends when he have our sheriff issued windbreaker on.

The family of the young girl I mentioned started a non-profit service called "Ashley's Angels" that would give drunk people a ride home. You just called and they'd send two people in a car - one to drive you home and one to drive your car home for you. No fee, but they accepted donations. It ran for a few years but eventually they had to stop due to lack of funding.

The jist of the story is that i am convinced that my friend set me up cuz i had been riding him hard to stop drinking and driving.

Sounds like a shitty friend.

Got pulled over for a taillight being out one time. Naturally every other available cop in the area pulled in behind the one that pulled over. I was honest with the guy and told him that I had a couple beers earlier that afternoon. It was cold as shite outside that night, and standing one leg was hard as shite from all the shivering. I passed all the test, and the guy still wanted to search my vehicle. I was driving my dad's old truck and after searching for about half an hour trying to find something they managed to find one old empty prescription bottle from some medicine he had been that had fallen into that bottomless crevice between the driver's seat and center console. The cop was like "You want to explain this??" I was like "Yessir, it says on the label that it was my dad's, this is his old truck, he's since passed on and I guess I missed a few things when I was cleaning it out." So finally, they realized that we weren't the droids they were looking for and let us go. The main officer's named was Stephen, and I found out about year ago per the Facebook that he is now going by Stephanie and was tired of living a lie.

Those are pretty heartbreaking stories.

No joke this same exact thing happened to me leaving the Bulldog. Didn't use my blinker turning right onto Acadian bc I'm in the turn lame and its 1:30 and there's literally no other cars on the road. Cop pulls me over and gives me test, says I am "borderline" and the only way he will let me leave is if I blow. I guess he wasn't certified to give the test or some shite so he brings me to a gas station where we are waiting for some mobile drunk bus that has a breathalyzer with someone who can administer it. We wait 20 minutes for the bus to show up, we sit there for another 20 until he comes back and says the breathalyzer is broken. So he takes us to fricking LSU PD. By the time we get to the room with the breathalyzer its been almost 2 hours since he pulled me over so of course I blow under.

Best part is my SO was riding with me and she was actually trashed, but the cop let her drive you car to follow us on our little breathalyzer hunt across BR

Well frick that guy then. I wasted two hours of his time, and now I don't feel bad for laughing in his face as we were walking out the station
