Bride Arrested On Wedding Day For Drunk Driving
Stupid?
The 31-year-old Bellevue bride-to-be was heading home from her bachelorette party Saturday morning. Her wedding was only hours away. There was just one problem: Her friends let her drive.
It was 6 a.m. and the woman was doing 90 while weaving in and out of traffic. A Washington State Patrol officer pulled her over and discovered that the woman’s blood alcohol level was twice the legal limit. The woman also had a confession: This wasn’t the first time she’d been booked for a DUI.
After being taken to jail, the woman was released in time to take a taxi and make the service in Burien. But she still faces drunken driving charges. And the reality that, while her friends were considerate enough to give her a party before she got hitched, they weren’t smart enough to hide her keys.
