Drinking and driving and drinking some more

You know, what this guy lacks in brains, he almost makes up for with balls:

Police in Florida said a 68-year-old man who refused a field sobriety test after being involved in a car crash drank a beer while talking to troopers.

I can almost see his, um, logic here. I mean, if he's casually sipping a beer while talking to the cops, they're not gonna suspect that he was driving the car, right? I mean, that would be foolish.

There was just one little problem...

The Florida Highway Patrol said Elmer Daniels of Bradenton initially switched seats with his wife after a collision with another vehicle just prior to 8 p.m. Tuesday, but four adults in the other vehicle identified him as the driver, the Bradenton Herald reported Monday.

And he would have gotten away with it, if it wasn't for those meddling accident victims!
