Investigators were trying Monday to determine if a suspected drunken driver involved in a solo crash into a tree Sunday night failed to buckle his own seat belt even though the 12-pack he was carrying on the passenger seat was safely belted in.
Witnesses told Citrus Heights police that they saw the man driving north on Van Maren Lane in excess of 60 mph before he lost control of his car and slammed into a tree near Garden Gate Drive.
Dude is still alive evidently. Perhaps he will wake up and be able to tell the investigators.
It better have been good beer. If it was a 12 pack of Schlitz, then this guy is dumber than I even thought possible.
That is an awesome story!!! I love Darwin awards. Technically since he is still alive that counts as an honorable mention…
I actually live in Citrus Heights, Ca and want to say that we are not all that bad.
