Kentucky man denies drunk driving, blames blow job

A Kentucky man who was arrested for DUI has said his erratic driving was less to do with alcohol and more to do with the oral sex he was receiving from his passenger at the time. Jason Kircher was pulled over by cops after being clocked at 66mph in a 55 mph zone on Interstate 64, the Courier Journal reports. An officer …

Looks like he enjoyed it...

but assuming his partner has been equally blessed in the looks department, I'm surprised he wasn't charged with bestiality....

@AC

It's ok, it was probably his sister.

[Chris Seiter]

keeping it in the family

Incest is best, put your sister to the test; nuthin's says luvin' like a cousin!

"Your sister's hot!" "She's your sister too!"

We play the dulcimer with our toes

It's called a toothbrush because we only have one tooth (between the three of us)

I'm about as far north in Kentucky without being in Ohio so I've heard them all. This doesn't shock me one bit.

0.54% would be pretty drunk...

I think you mean 0.054% :)

"This doesn't appear to have gone down well with the cops"

Odd that, don't you think? Maybe they were just jelous or something.

Also, folllowed the link - that IS a rather manic grin he's wearing there!

[sandman]

It's Friday!

Proper Reg Friday news story!

[hplasm]

That picture-

Isn't he on The Simpsons? I'm surprised he didn't get off with the ;don't you know who I am?' defense.

Still, it doesn't say whether he did get off....before he was stopped.

"possession of an open alcoholic container"

Charge with WHAT???

[Anonymous Coward]

In many US states

... it's an offense to have an open can, or bottle of booze, irrespective of who was drinking it.

ISTR in Louisiana (?) it was illegal to have alcoholic beverages in the cabin of the car - they had to go in the trunk, or the bed of the pickup. That's one of the reasons the cops shine their torches into the car when the pull someone, apart from the obvious check for a hidden passenger or firearm.

Welcome to the united states of America

In most of the USA it is illegal to:

1. Have an open container with alcohol outside private premises. An open bottle in your car is actually an offence.

2. You are not allowed to drink until the age of 21. Been busted for that one by the way. Cost me 200£ and a one week conditional discharge subject to mandatory attendance of an alcohol awareness course. The only reason I did not go do jail time was because the judge just came back from a holiday to Europe.

3. You must supply a valid ID to buy alcohol. Most shops will not bother checking if you look old enough, but the law says that they should.

Land of the free...

over-21 check

I got asked for ID in the US a few years back when I ordered wine in a restaurant. I was ~45 at the time. Still not sure if I should have been flattered, or if the waiter really needed a Specsavers trip...

@ Welcome to the united states of America

To add to that, in some states even if it is legal to have a closed container of alcohol in your vehicle, it can still be considered illegal if it is not factory sealed, for example a screw top container which has been opened previously - and then closed again, one that was closed when officers found it! Same applies for a corked bottle of wine apparently.

Alochol awareness course?

When you were obviously already aware of alcohol. Madness.

Yep, the one with heavy pockets.

[Simon 79]

With a smile like that...

... he must be telling the truth!

Stop sign because that's what he wasn't saying.

[jake]

At least Jessica Talarovich, 31, of Louisville has an excuse ...

"Hey, I was dronk!"

Apparently it's not only the girls who look prettier at closing-time ...

UM

Exactly how and why did this get sucked up by The Register? There are hundreds of news stories about dumb hicks every day, why does this one get lucky?

[genome]

could be because

could be because they were sitting in the office laughing at it and decided to share

[CmdrX3]

Yup, without a doubt...

Looking at the grin on that fuckers face, it was definitely the blow job.

Paris because...... Do I really need to explain.

[ratfox]

You do need to explain

Is there a beer called Paris now?

[Urh]

Re: Yup, without a doubt...

Actually, I would use the fact that he tried pinning it all on a blow job (indecent exposure plus reckless driving) to argue that he was indeed drunk. If not drunk, then under the influence of an illicit substance. Because let's face it, you have to be in a fairly altered state of mind to think that a policeman is going to buy such an outrageous explanation.

Mine's the one with the half-empty bottle of Beck's in the pocket.

[Frostbite]

ooooh err

The police officer suspected him doing 69 in the 55 zone too

[Far Canal]

It was ....

It was a 68 actually - blow me now and I'll owe you one.

[Allan George Dyer]

"driving without due care and attention" cover it?

speaking of chavs

Stella Artois is being promoted to the USA TV audience as a romantic upscale beverage. No wife beater shirts to be seen.
