Drunk Driver Mistakes Cigarette Packet as Cellphone

[4Drea]

A drunk driver has come the butt of a world-wide joke - after he was filmed by police trying to make phone calls from a packet of cigarettes.

The film - shot by traffic cops in the Russian capital, Moscow - has become a bizarre world-wide hit with more than 170,000 hits on YouTube.

The unidentified driver - pulled over for driving erratically - first tries to speak into his hand to make a call.

But when he realises that isn't working he pulls out a cigarette packet and in front of the bemused cops apparently believes he's having detailed phone conversations - first with his father, and then a friend.

"Just deal with the situation," he says before hanging up and passing out with his head slumped on a policeman's shoulder.

When asked what he's doing the clearly drunk driver says: "Well, we were driving and we were almost there and now here we are."

 

I want to see this youtube video. But that is awesome how the police actually filmed this.

I think they should make a charge for being too dumb. This man is an idiot. And also is a prime example of why they need to have a dumb person charge.

the police should pry be a little more proffesional and not video tape stuff like that, isnt that illegal? but it is pretty funny.
