Hmm... interesting. Boating while drinking. I guess a lot goes into my thoughts on it. First he is a Rep in the state so he should be watching every step and should have expected a harsh sentence. Not saying its right but thats why you don't put yourself in that spot. 3x the legal limit is not something anyone can defend. I mean if he was a .10, I would be on the other side but at .25, yeah you have had to much for any motorized vehicle. Now if he was in a row boat...
Actually my main thought was why did he take the Breathalyzer? It could not have been worse for him. You just don't take that test unless you are fairly sure you may be able to pass it. I mean we may feel a little different if he said he had a few beers but said he did not feel drunk and was not going to take the test when he was the one that was hit. Just a dumb move on his part, he gave them the evidence to hang him. Of course if he had not been drinking so much he might have thought of that...
I guess in the end, just another good reason to do what is right and let someone else drive.
