A true story from the Perth in Western Australia.
Recently a routine Police patrol car parked
outside a local neighbourhood pub.
Late in the evening the officer noticed a man
leaving the bar so intoxicated that he could barely walk..
The man stumbled around the car park for a few
minutes, with the officer quietly observing. After what seemed an
eternity and trying his keys on five vehicles. The man managed to
find his 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 the car,
switched the wipers on and off (it was a fine dry night). Then
flicked the indicators on, then off, tooted the horn and then
switched on the lights.
He moved the vehicle forward a few cm, reversed a
little and then remained stationary for a few more minutes as some
more vehicles left. At last he pulled out of the car park and started
to drive slowly down the road.
The Police officer, having patiently waited all
this time, now started up the patrol car, put on the flashing lights,
promptly pulled the man over and carried out a random breathalyser
test.
To his amazement the breathalyser indicated no
evidence of the man's intoxication.
The Police officer said "I'll have to ask you to
accompany me to the Police station - this breathalyser equipment must
be broken."
"I doubt it," said the man, "tonight I'm the
designated decoy".
