Drunk driving laws
 

Interesting video on drunk driving laws

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lR6w0cnYdIE

What kind of ASSCLOWN cop would charge someone with a "OVI" for walking a bike across their own front lawn?

The same kind that enters onto his private property to roust him for "Not having a headlight on your bike."

Just more of the same...at least they didn't send in a SWAT team to "take him down."

He would have had my sympathy on the bicycle thing, until he started trying to excuse drunk driving as a whole, including driving a car. This guy missed his opportunity for sympathy. F him.

§ 4511.52 of the revised code states that the regulations apply to bicycles only "whenever a bicycle is operated upon any highway or upon any path set aside for the exclusive use of bicycles."

Walking his bicycle on private property, with or without a light and even if he was more fuct up than a train wreck... he broke no law.

I rather suspect that the video is just an propaganda piece that was produced simply so that he could get his message out that drunk driving is not such a big deal. He hooks you with the absurd "bicycle law" and then moves the discussion to a different law entirely so that you draw the conclusion that it, too, is absurd.

I have no idea if his statistics are valid or not, but the bicycle thing sure got my attention.

Glad to hear they've 'fixed' the law.
