In the report, officers said they found an open and half-empty bottle of Moet & Chandon champagne on the floorboard behind the driver's seat.

Well that's rich drunk, which means it's legal to drive.

She blew 19 and 20 when pulled over? Who were the first lucky 18 that evening?

"But I thought you guys didn't give tickets to pretty girls."

"We don't. Sign here."

I'd Fakih it.

Who cares, she's hot. I drive the same streets she does and I'd rather she be drunk and on the road than sober and behind bars.

Too bad she isn't from the UK, they would just let her walk because of her religion.
 
2011-12-07 10:07:51 AM
At least she took responsibility on her Twitter account. "Let's clear things up now...I'm NOT in Michigan and I'm NOT in jail! Wrong Fakih."

Oops. I must be thinking of the wrong Rima Fakih.

When will young people realize that's it's only ok to drive drunk if your house is "only a few blocks away" and you can get there by cutting through parking lots and using side roads?

Access roads through commercial or industrial areas work great too.

What? Don't look at me like that. It's 1.8 miles from my doorstep to the bar, and it recently started dropping below freezing here. I asked a cabbie to take me once, and he said there was a "3 mile minimum". Joke's on him, I puked on his hood.

Laughing at my quiet job, looking like a nut, thanks.

Why does the Daily Fail care about a DUI arrest in Michigan for a Miss USA beauty pageant winner?

Oh, that's right - Muslims. Forgot.

At some point in the evening she must have ordered her first drink. That was the time for her to think "I'm the designated driver, maybe tomorrow instead."

It said she was going at 60mph, weaving in heavy traffic and changing lanes without using a turn signal.

I'm tempted to let her off on that last charge. A half a blink before cutting in front of me doesn't give me time to react. Just go and take your chances on the collision and/or reckless driving charge.

she needs to be punished. with my PENIS.

From Miss USA to a contestant on a WWE wrestling show...in one year? I can't imagine that the career arc that she imagined. That's no excuse, but it could put her behavior in context.

Next year's headline should be even more interesting....

Highland Park still has cops?

FTFA:

I wonder why that got the cop's attention. It's how everyone drives around here.

Well, usually the career arc goes from Miss USA to dental assistant.

His client, the former Miss Michigan, was born in Lebanon and won the Miss USA Pageant in 2010. Her reign ended earlier this year.

She won the Miss USA Pageant in May 2010. Her reign ended June 19, 2011. She was the first Miss Michigan to win the title since 1993 and the first Arab American winner ever.


Wait. When did she win? And when did her reign end? The article doesn't really point that out
 
2011-12-07 11:24:41 AM
I give her some credit. She was driving because her friend was drunk and she didn't want her driving.
 
2011-12-07 11:32:32 AM
I hereby sentence her to 500 lashes...

with my tongue
 
2011-12-07 11:50:14 AM
Had that cop been me, the headline would have been completely different.
sorta NSFW'ish

Meanwhile, in other news, Detroit mullahs have issued two separate fatwahs on Ms. Fakih - one for drinking, and one for driving.
 
2011-12-07 12:25:17 PM
But was the bottle half empty or half full?
 
2011-12-07 12:30:42 PM

".20 percent" != 20%

So she's hot and drinks heavily?

How you doin', Rima?

/whatdoyouknow


They run a speed trap 24 / 7.

It's the sole revenue source for that mini Deeeetwoit h*llhole.

Avoid Woodward and Oakland. Better yet use 75 or the Lodge.
