24th's 'Don't Try This At Home' Story: |
| This
is a story in a local South Island community paper. Recently
a routine police patrol parked outside a local neighborhood
tavern. Late in the evening the officer noticed a man leaving
the bar so intoxicated that he could barely walk. The man stumbled
around the car park for a few minutes, with the officer quietly
observing.
After what seemed an eternity and trying his keys on five
vehicles, the man managed to find his car which he fell into.
He sat there for a few minutes as a number of other patrons
left the bar and drove off. Finally he started the car, switched
the wipers on and off (it was a fine dry night) flicked the
indicators on, then off, tooted the horn and then switched
on the lights. . He moved the vehicle forward a few inches,
reversed a little and then remained stationery for a few more
minutes as some more vehicles left.
At last he pulled out of the car park and started to drive
slowly down the road. The police officer, having patiently
waited all this time, now started up the patrol car, put on
the flashing lights, promptly pulled the' man over and carried
out a breathalyzer test. To his amazement the breathalyzer
indicated no evidence of the man having consumed alcohol at
all!
Dumbfounded, the officer said "I'll have to ask you
to accompany me to the police station this breathalyzer equipment
must be broken.".
"I doubt it", said the man, "tonight I was
the Designated Decoy."
