Kentucky Man Arrested for DUI During Demolition Derby



Columbia Tribune - A man in Kentucky — of course, it was Kentucky — was arrested after the Jessamine County Fair demolition derby event and charged with drunken driving. Filed under D for “Duh!,” it seems that David L. Warner Jr. consumed a few Bud Lights before hopping in his clunker and ramming into the other competitors. I mean, he could have hurt somebody! Police received numerous complaints, so they came down to the fairgrounds and became suspicious when they noticed him swerving. No truth to the rumor that they also cited him for not using his turn signals and for having a broken taillight. After Warner won, police observed him staggering and having trouble standing. Surely it had nothing to do with a bunch of cars running into each other. Afterward, Jessamine County’s finest plodded over to the bumper cars, where they proceeded to ticket kids for reckless driving.

Wow, talk about shoddy journalism, I don't think the original writer could have been further off here.  The man wasn't arrested for DUI and public safety reasons, the dude was arrested for using performance enhancing substances.

I've got $100 dollars that the numerous complaints came from competing drivers after this dude just came out like a bat out of hell, steam rolling the competition.  I can't think of a better performance enhancer for a demolition derby than a 12 pack of Bud Heavy's and liquid courage.  Barry Bonds himself, injecting HGH and stem cells from baby fetus' wouldn't have had more of an advantage than this guy rolling through a demolition derby completley faced.
