Only In New Zealand...
This is a story in a local South Island community paper. Recently a routine
police patrol parked outside a local neighbourhood tavern. 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 sat 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) flicked the indicators on, then off, tooted
the horn and then switched on the lights. . He moved the vehicle forward a
few inches, reversed a little and then remained stationery 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
breathalyser test. To his amazement the breathalyser indicated no evidence
of the man having consumed alcohol at all! Dumbfounded, the 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 was the "D.D."...Designated Decoy."
