Man Arrested for DUI on Go-Kart, Blows .22% BAC

Not surprisingly, this guy's license had been suspended so he knew he couldn't drive a car, so the next best thing? A go-kart, of course. But, much like our drunken friends who try to make it to the bar on riding lawnmowers or golf carts (occasionally even a horse) he found out you can still be arrested for DWI, regardless of the size or shape of your transportation. Bonus: While the cops were arresting this guy, a second drunk driver ran into them! (Thanks to reader Daniel C. for the link!)

A Lewiston man who was leaving a bar on Center Street driving a go-kart was charged with felony driving while intoxicated Sunday. And while police were arresting him, a second man almost ran into officers and the go-kart and also was charged with DWI. Ronald E. Voit, 22, of Fuller Street had driven to the Pub Bar and Restaurant in a go-kart because his license had been revoked for a previous DWI conviction. He was seen driving the go-kart near the bar just after 2 a.m.

He was pulled over by Lewiston Police Officer Scott Stafford at Eighth and Onondaga streets and was found to have a blood alcohol of .22 percent -- nearly three times the legal limit -- police said. He was charged with DWI for operating above 0.18 percent, felony DWI for a previous conviction, aggravated unlicensed operation, operating an uninsured motor vehicle on a highway and a number of vehicle and traffic violations.
