DWI suspect drives 11 miles without tire

Post by renovation »

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. http://apnews.excite.com/article/201008 ... 87FO0.html

i suprized he made it home the road had to be a mess leading most the way to his house . he is lucky he didnt flip the van even going slow there top heavy for the most part . i wonder what was left of the wheel ,drum or rotor on the right side of his van. it is a hell of a light (spark ) show at night even on a gravel road when you loose a tire and ride on a rim. :s mackme
the Last time I was Talking to myself . I got into such a heated argument . that is why I swore I never talk to that guy again. you know what it worked now no buddy talking to me. :help

Hmmm, right rear tire? If the van was empty and he was a fat man, the rim may have rarely touched the ground except when turning left... :)

What gets me is no license, dui... they should throw the book at him. Driver License in the US is a joke. Its way to easy to get and not enforced strictly. People think its a right not a responsibility.
