Newark, NJ - Newark police say the man crashed earlier this month when he tried to make a U-turn on a city street. Neighbors heard what sounded like a lawnmower buzzing down Kelley Lane in Newark earlier this month. It turned out to be a motorized bar stool which police say a man crashed while drunk.Kile Wygle, 28, is charged with driving a bar stool while under the influence of alcohol and driving with a suspended license. He's asked for a jury trial. Police say Wygle crashed his strange-looking contraption while trying to make a U-turn on March 4.
According to a report, Wygle told Officer Michael Trotter that his bar stool can reach speeds of 38 mph, but was only going 20 mph when he crashed. Wygle was treated for minor injuries at Licking Memorial Hospital where he joked with Trotter about drinking 15 beers before the crash. He refused the blood-alcohol test.
Ohio law prohibits anyone from operating a motorized vehicle while under the influence of drugs or alcohol. The law excludes wheelchairs and mobility scooters.
[...They should not let rednecks get ahold of any spare lawnmower engines to use for recreation purposes...just my opinion]
