Peel Regional Police allege the man was drinking at a bar early Wednesday morning and set out to show his friends he wasn’t impaired.

CBC – Police say a man is facing an impaired driving charge after attempting to prove to his friends that he wasn’t drunk.

It’s alleged he drove to a Mississauga, Ont., police station to prove his point.

Police say he asked for a breath test and officers obliged.

A police spokeswoman says his blood-alcohol level was allegedly one-and-a-half times the legal limit.

A 32-year-old Caledon, Ont., man has been charged in connection with the incident.

This guy is me, I am this guy. I know everyone is laughing at him thinking “What an idiot!” slapping “r/NotTheOnion” tags on the story or whatever. That’s fine. On the surface driving to the police station and asking them to Breathalyze you after you had been drinking thus putting alcohol in your system, is pretty dumb. I wouldn’t be that dumb. But I CAN relate to the feeling of everyone thinking you’re wrong when you know you’re right. Everyone trying to tell you one thing when you think the other thing. The sense of frustration when other people think they’re smarter than you. Like you don’t know your own body. Like you don’t know your own feelings. Like you don’t know what’s inside of your own head. You don’t tell ME I’m drunk, I tell you. I’m not drunk. I just have a speech impediment. And a stomach virus. And an inner ear infection. If you don’t believe me I’ll prove it, I ‘ll drive straight to the police station and have them administer a foolproof test to prove my point.

He was wrong in this case but point stands, it’s always worth a shot when personal pride is on the line with your dumbass friends.
