A Drunk Driver was Arrested When He Crashed His Lawn Mower into a Police Car

I feel like this guy needs to work on his excuses.

 

 

There's a 68-year-old guy named Gary Wayne Anderson from Haines City, Florida.  And on Saturday night, he was drunk . . . and driving his lawn mower down the street.

 

 

But his ride stopped when . . . he crashed into the back of a POLICE CAR.

 

 

The police officer wasn't in the car at the time, but when he came out, Gary had an excuse ready.

 

 

He said it wasn't his fault he crashed into the car . . . it only happened because he was drunk.  Well played.

 

 

It turns out his blood-alcohol level was .241, which is three times the legal limit.  And his license has been suspended for 41 YEARS because of past drunk driving convictions.  So he was arrested for drunk driving.

(Here's Gary's mugshot and a picture of the mower.  And yes, he was towing a trailer behind it with a cooler inside.)
