I'm sorry I didn't get the story quite right. What I heard was that they pulled him over, and he was beligerent with the cops so they took him in for a breathalizer. The person relaying the story must have made the assumption that he was charged with DUI.
Amy, Mark told me last night that what he read is that they couldn't find a "working" breathalyzer (hmmm, confidence?) so he was only charged with reckless driving.Quote:

I'm sure you'll have even more fun today...looking forward to the videos and pictures when you come back!!!!!
Too bad for KB.....
I immensely dislike the "Sheriff". He's a pompus arse, he's the one that keeps prisoners in tents, makes them wear pink underwear and prison wear and feeds them PB and Js... Jail shouldn't be a picnic, but it's just his "TV" face and his media 'presence' that bugs me....
If you noticed the statement he made on the prerace show-He said something like "No one comes into my town...."
Your town????
=======================
"Sheriff!!! This Kurt Busch called us wimps!!!"
"Settle down Barney.....We'll send him over to Mount Pilot where they do have a working breathalyzer!!!" :rolleyes:
They couldn't nail him for DUI so they blamed him for RD....you also have a blood test or a urine test to fall back on..KB had his choice-he chose correctly... :p
Disregarding the sheriff's media circus, KB's actions were the last straw. He has been a personality headache for roush the last 2 years, and I'm actually surprised the roush kept him on this long after negotiating with another team while still under contract with roush. He's a good driver, but he's in the same situation Tony Stewart was prior to Tony getting his temper in check.
Whether he was driving under the influence or not, if he had enough alcohol in his system for the deputy to notice it, he was wrong. I'm sure he can afford to have someone drive him if he's had a couple. For that matter, what in hell was he doing drinking DURING a race weekend?
A sippy cup at 150 mph can be a little distracting??? :confused:Quote:
