Based on this joke, I think we should implement it!!
PERHAPS THE BEST DRINKING STORY EVER TOLD.
Recently, a routine police patrol was parked outside a local neighborhood
bar in Minnesota. Late in the evening, the officer noticed a man leaving
the bar so intoxicated that he could barely walk. The man stumbled around
the parking lot for a few minutes with the officer quietly watching. After
what seemed an eternity and trying his keys on five different vehicles,
the man managed to find his own car which he fell into. He was there for a
few minutes as a number of other patrons left the bar and drove off.
Finally, he started his car, switched the wipers on and off (it was a dry
night), flicked the hazard flasher on and off, tooted the horn and then
switched on the lights. He moved the vehicle forward a few inches,
reversed a little and then remained stationary for a few more minutes as
more patrons left in their vehicles. At last he pulled out of the parking
lot and started to drive slowly down the street.
The police officer having patiently waited all this time, now started up
his 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 that the man 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'm the designated decoy."
