[ARCHIVED THREAD] - Mayor arrested for drunk driving

Posted: 10/26/2013 1:36:08 PM EDT

According to the Traverse City Police Department, an officer
saw a car traveling east on East Eighth Street near Woodmere Avenue when
it crossed over the center line and proceeded to drive in the
designated bike lane.

The officer stopped the car near the intersection of East Eighth Street and Rose Street.

According
to the probable cause warrant, Estes "smelled of intoxicants and had
watery, glassy eyes." The officer reported that Estes admitted to having
one beer at his house earlier.

Estes reportedly failed several
in-field sobriety tests and eventually blew a .120 BAC and was arrested
for operating while intoxicated, first offense.

Estes, 63, was held at the Grand Traverse County Jail.

Yep, heard that on the radio yesterday. Bad timing for him.

The mayor should have used the Rudy Tomjonovich defense. "If you don't like my driving, stay off the sidewalk."
