Horse is Not a Designated Driver!

SYLVANIA, Ala. (AP) — A northeast Alabama police chief says D-U-I charges can apply even when the vehicle has four legs instead of wheels. Sylvania Police Chief Brad Gregg said 40-year-old Melissa Byrum York of Henager went for a midnight horseback ride through Sylvania and was charged with driving under the influence and drug offenses. The incident happened Sunday.
Police in the DeKalb County town say she used the horse to ram a police car. She's also been charged with animal cruelty and second-degree assault.
Gregg also said York had warrants for her arrest in neighboring Jackson County.

Hmmm, sounds like someone should've kept their drunk, drugged rear-end at home!
