A friend of mine was arrested for a DUI while sitting in his living room.

We were partying in his house and a drunk driver ran into his car that was parked on the street and then drove off. When we reported the incident to the cops to get a police report he was arrested and charged with a DUI.

The only thing that saved him is the drunk driver lost a piece of his front grill at the scene and then smashed into a telephone pole a mile away...... but even with all that it took weeks and thousands in lawyer bills for him to clear his name.
