George Jones would do that.
After his wife hid his car keys, he'd run out of liquor and hop on his lawnmower or tractor to go to the store to get more booze.

what the hell.. Is it really illegal to operate a lawn mower while drunk? What a fucking dick cop :|

I'm not amused. I don't like it when cops harass white trash anymore than when they pull me over for driving while black.


oh staged.. Well now I just feel foolish.. 😱


still, google turns up several cases of The Man? infringing on the John Q Public's right to operate various non-automobiles while intoxicated and goddamnit I'm mad as hell about it. I'm going to go write an angry letter to a senator or something..

I'm not sure that it's illegal to mow your lawn while intoxicated, but I do believe that it's illegal to operate a lawn mower on public roads while intoxicated (and it should be); it's also illegal to operate a bicycle on public roads while intoxicated (I don't really think it should be, but whatever).

I'm not sure that it's legal to operate a lawnmower on public roads at all. At very least he'd need one of those reflective orange triangles on the back. I see farm equipment on the roads with the orange triangles, but I don't recall if they also have license plates.
