Just when he thought he got away....

John, we will use this name for privacy reasons, is a very popular and funny individual. He's very involved in in school activities, and usually smart about the choices he makes...as you noticed, I said usually.

One night, John went out with some of his friends and quite a bit to drink. As the night went on John decided he wanted to go to another party. He left with some of friends to go to another house. As all the friends were in the car jamming out to music, John became distracted. The reason for this was probably the drunk individual in the back seat that was throwing skittles at him trying to get them into his mouth. This caused john to turn a corner to sharp and hit a curb. All the sudden he seen a car whip around. It was a cop. Crap! John pulled into the nearest driveway so that the cop would maybe assume that he lived there. Nope. John's friends told him to run. And that's what he did. He ran all over town that night trying to avoid the cops.

Weeks went by and John thought he got away without getting caught, while all his friends in the car took the bluff and got MIP's. Then one day John got a phone call saying there was a warrant out for his arrest. Busted.

John had to get a lawyer, which cost about $1000, and had to sit in jail that night. After going through months worth of court dates, John finally got his sentence--a MIP. So all in all it's probably a good thing he ran--saved his butt from a DUI! Moral of the story, sometimes stupid decisions end up being ok in the end :)
