A gentleman in Lexington, Kentucky was arrested and charged with DUI for riding his horse in an inebriated condition. He was "pulled over" by an officer as he noted something amiss with the "driver" of said horse.He was on his way home from the liquor store. So be careful folks if you drink and drive on your riding mower. Least you can't be nailed for speeding.

A person I once met got a DUI for driving his 4 wheeler on his own property.
The neighbors complained about the noise and when police arrived he got pretty angry and ended up with a DUI.
I believe horses depend on the state because you can argue you arent driving the horse is. Anything with wheels though even skateboards, roller blades, bicycles you can get poped. The funniest ones are the people riding lawn mowers

Don't see how he could get a DUI. Not on your own property , probably got disorderly conduct.
What is "poped"? Like in Eurotrip?
He didn't see it either. He was PI$$ED! He absolutely got a DUI. He ended up in treatment and a 12 step program.
You need to educate yourself on how the law works. According to attorney Gerald Miller, in Minnesota, you cannot get a DUI for riding a horse, only a motor vehicle. However, according to Devore Law Office, you can get a DUI for operating a vehicle on your own land in Minnesota.
A relative of mine got a DUI when he realized he was too drunk to drive and pulled over to sleep it off. Police came to investigate and he got a DUI for sleeping drunk in his car! It was explained to him that he was drunk and could resume driving when he felt sober enough, but he still might be drunk at that time. He hired a lawyer and lost.
Similar with the guy on the 4 wheeler. He was on his property, but there was nothing stopping him from driving off his property. This guy had money and fought it hard..............he lost.
So by those accounts of speculation - anybody that is drunk in their own house can be arrested because they could get in their car and drive somewhere - that makes no sense..........

No, that's not the same.
Minnesota Statute 169A.20 makes it a crime for any person to drive, operate, or be in physical control of any motor vehicle within the state when under the influence of alcohol or a controlled substance — and the law does not specify that a person must be traveling on a public road or highway.
It's an over-broad DWI law which I would agree doesn't make that much sense.
Still gonna send it!
