Incahol And Gasaloon Don't Mix

IS THERE NO PLACE SAFE TO DRINK ANYMORE?  A Newark, Ohio, man thought he’d be ok as long as he remained seated on a barstool.  But then he made the mistake of driving his barstool down the roadway, and when you’ve already got a suspended license, that’s a no-no.

The Newark Fire and EMS responded to a report of a man who “sustained injuries from a crash.”  They found 28-year-old Kile W. Wygle had been operating the barstool on Kelley Lane when he wrecked it while trying to make a turn.

Wygle claimed the barstool could reach speeds of 38 miles per hour but that he was traveling at about 20 miles per hour when he crashed.  The police report that was filed says that Wyglie admitted to having drunk 15 beers prior to his late-night drive.

The police issued him a citation for OVI and driving under suspension.

Update:
Some people race the dang things:

    Does this classify as a fall from same height or ejection from a motor vehicle?

    Hmmm…

    I think we need a new protocol.

    I have stoodby at…and then witnessed and responded to an accident at…a lawn mower race.

    Racer wasn’t hurt, but after being ejected from the mower she slid under a chainlink fence and took out a spectator on the other side!

    A few years ago(32)while working at a ER in Colorado for lab time in my EMT class a man arrived with a bar stool glued to his rear. The FD had cut off the legs to ease in transport. A carpenter was called and a joint carpentry/medical proceadure was performed to remove it. A fast acting glue had been placed on the stool, very drunk he sat down and fell asleep, the glue soaked through clothing and became hard securing his butt and other private parts to the wooden stool.
