A Franklin man was arrested and charged with operating while intoxicated on Saturday— but he wasn't behind the wheel of a car. Officers pulled over 46-year-old Barry Ridge while he was driving down County Road 100 North on a red lawn mower, according to the Johnson County Sheriff's department....

This isn't the first time Ridge was arrested for driving his lawnmower while drunk, according to police records. He was arrested in a Kroger parking lot in Marion County for operating the mower while intoxicated and "causing a disturbance" on April 8. His Huskee lawn tractor was impounded.

I mow my neighbor's yard occasionally, without their advance knowledge. It frees up some Saturday time for them and none have ever gotten mad.

Sooooo...can you not drink beer while mowing your lawn? Or can you just not ride the mower on the street?
