It was only a matter of time. Last December, I wrote a blog about some of the more frivilous items offered by a cataloger. Among those cited was the 14 mph cooler, which married the concepts of vehicle operation and ample cold beverages on hand. It's a cooler with wheels driven by an electric motor.
I'm guessing Leslie "Bomber" Marr was the first to be busted at the wheel (handlebars). The alert police force of Whitehall, NY (population 2,600) pounced on the 57- year old, who was on his way home from working at the local American Legion Post. Bomber avoids street operation and was on a sidewalk at the time of the arrest.
The arresting officer observed some sweerving and rose to the occasion. Bomber was charged with DWI, unlicensed operation of a motor vehicle, and operating an uninsured motor vehicle.
The county district attorney stated, "They tell us he's been riding around town (Whiteahll) for years. You can't cruise around on your cooler if you're intoxicated." Words to live by.
