One night a police officer was staking out a particularly rowdy bar for possible DUI violations.
At closing time, he saw a fellow stumble out of the bar, trip on the curb and try his keys on five different cars before he found his.
The man sat in the front seat fumbling around with his keys for several minutes.
Meanwhile, all the other patrons left the bar and drove off.
Finally he started his engine and began to pull away.
The police officer was waiting for him.
As soon as he pulled onto the street, the officer stopped him, read him his rights and administered the breathalyzer test to determine his blood-alcohol content.
The results showed a reading of .00
The puzzled officer demanded to know how that could be.
The driver replied, "Tonight I'm the designated decoy."

Believe it or not, but that is actually a true stpry - happened on the Sunshine Coast (I think it was the Alex hotel or name similar). We used to live there.
Used to do similar on the gold coast back in the day driving tippers. Scalies were about so load up one of the older trucks legal and pull out of the quarry 1 gear too high to make it blow plenty of black smoke, while they were busy with him everyone else just sailed by .
