    I’m with you on that, D.H.Green.

    No right time to drink and drive.

    nope, he was at the wrong place at the right time

    David thinking there’s no good time to drive drunk,
    but if folks insist, best when done in front of law enforcement

    If he hadn’t driven the wrong way, they wouldn’t have known he was DUI

    If he hadn’t been DUI, he wouldn’t have driven the wrong way.

    David thinking things balance out

    …LOL, I’m sorry I know I shouldn’t laugh about this, but it is funny because of the fact that he drove under the influence past the century sheriff’s precinct on the wrong side of the road… Did he actually think that the law enforcement wouldn’t see him doing this… Seriously glad that no one was hurt, if people want to drink alcohol; they really need to do it at home and stay off of the roads, where they are putting lives in danger… Excellent job Deputy James Gilman for getting this man off the streets before he killed himself or others…
