OK, that is still one of the funniest youtube videos I have ever seen.

However, does it bother anyone else that the cop kept changing the "road-side sobriety test" until he failed?

A good friend of mine was just appointed as Crown Prosecutor (DA in the USA). His observation (whilst in private practice) was that the most elastic charge was DUI. His observation was that in many (most?) cases the officer could do all most any thing and then claim that the person had failed a "road-side sobriaty test".

I do not mean to vindicate "drunk-drivers", however making a person line-dance on the side of the highway seems a bit much.
