VA - failed field-sobriety test and a 0.24 percent blood-alcohol content - three times the legal limit of 0.08 - led to Bowers’ arrest, police said Friday.
Police also impounded his beat-up Craftsman mower, and briefly kept Kazoo, the Jack Russell terrier Bowers towed behind him in a green, plastic garden trailer.
“I think it’s a bunch of [expletive], if you want my opinion,” said Bowers, a lifelong Waynesboro resident.
It’s not his first DUI charge on a riding lawnmower. That one came the night of May 7, 2003, as Bowers motored through downtown.
This time around, Bowers, a self-employed handyman with neither a driver’s license or car, was homeward bound after finishing a lawn-mowing gig and, he admitted, several Budweisers. He was inching through downtown when spotted by an officer already tipped off to Bowers’ presence via a 911 call. MagazineLane.com - Paul Fredrick MenStyle
