Man arrested for DWI on motorized beer cooler




NOOSA, Australia -- Drunk driving is no laughing matter, no matter what country you're in.

But the way an Australian man picked up his DWI is causing a few chuckles around the globe.

Cops in the city of Noosa stopped 23-year-old Christian Ian Petrie while he rode the streets on a motorized beer cooler. When tested, Petrie's blood alcohol level was three times the legal limit.

Petrie told the judge that he ordered parts to build his motorized beer cooler off the internet, had a couple drinks while assembling it, then took it out for a test spin.

The judge ruled that the cooler indeed was a vehicle, fined Petrie $520, and suspended his license for 9 months.

By the way, the cooler has a 4-stroke engine, and can reach a top speed of 12 mph.

    I think when you pull over a dude that is riding around on a motorized beer cooler you don't need to bother with the BAC test.

    I once road a motorised sheep in NZ.
    It was a sheep that was born without any legs, they fitted motorised wheels on it.
    It's like riding a donkey but fluffy.
