I really hope you guys try this after the golf outing.

ETHANY, N.Y. – Authorities said a western New York man whose license expired 33 years ago has been charged with driving while intoxicated after police said he drove a van 11 miles without one of its tires.

The Genesee County Sheriff's Office said another motorist reported seeing a tire falling off a van weaving on a road in Bethany late Monday night.

Deputies later arrested 61-year-old Duane Bush at his home in Bethany, 32 miles southwest of Rochester. Deputies said the van traveled 11 miles through the rural town without a rear right tire.

Bush was charged with aggravated DWI and unlicensed operation of a motor vehicle. Deputies said his blood-alcohol level was more than three times above the legal limit of .08 percent.

Police didn't know if Bush has a lawyer and there is no phone listed for him.

He could always call the lawyers who care... they are in the yellow pages.

I once arrested a guy for DUI that was passed out, and sitting in the middle of the road with no tire on his driver's side front.  There were pieces of the tire all over the road, and I later followed the trail of disentgrating tire for about 4 miles in to another jurisdiction.
