Dressed as breathalyser, held for drink-driving

If you're going to dress up as a breathalyser for Halloween, you should probably make sure that you don't find yourself on the wrong end of an actual breathalyser later that night.

Advice that Ohio student James Miller utterly failed to heed.

Miller was stopped by police on suspicion of drink-driving on Sunday morning in Ohio, after he was spotted driving the wrong way down a one-way street.

Suspicions that he may have been drinking were heightened by the fact that there was an open can of beer by the driver's seat, what was left of a case of the beer on the passenger seat, and more in the boot.

Miller's breathalyser costume featured a dial with three levels of drunkenness: Boring, Life of the Party, and Sotally Tober.

When confronted, Miller stuffed chewing gum into his mouth, and insisted he hadn't been drinking.

Unfortunately, a blood alcohol test showed he had almost twice the legal limit. He was also found to have multiple IDs on him.
