Amish man gets DUI in buggy.

LANCASTER - Police in central Pennsylvania say they arrested an Amish man on drunk driving charges over the weekend after he was found asleep in his moving buggy.

East Lampeter Township Police say 22-year-old Elmer Stoltzfoos Fisher, of Paradise, was slumped over and asleep in a slow-moving buggy on Sunday night.

An off-duty officer from nearby Quarryville reported seeing the horse pulling the buggy at a walking pace as it straddled the center line.

Police say a breathalyzer test snowed Fisher's blood-alcohol content was 0.18, more than twice the 0.08 legal limit for drivers.

I assume the horse walking the line,passed the test?

A good lawyer could get him off that BS ticket.  DUI laws are written for motor vehicles.  Of course, they could then get him for public endangerment. 

No problem !  He had the cruise control engaged.

They have arrested peope for dui on bicycles in Pa, the real problem he has is with the amish themselves

Disagree totally...all vehicles using public roadways, including bicycles are subject to each States vehicle codes...typically, buggies are licensed and are required to have battery operated lights...

Probably nothing the government could do to him would compare with what kind if heLL he'll catch from his family...
