After driving off the road and smashing into a street sign and leaving the scene, Levi B. Carter, 28, was arrested in his home, police found the extremely intoxicated man in the basement "talking to people who were not there."
KCRG reports, officers were called to 2105 J St., the home of 28-year-old Levi B. Carter, for a report of a man who drove off the road and hit a street sign.
Police spoke with a passenger in Carter's vehicle who said they heard Carter slurring his speech and believed him to be drunk. The passenger also told police Carter was driving 55 mph on First Avenue - a 25 mph zone - before crashing his car.
Carter was amazingly able to tell police that he had only consumed 2 bud lights before attempting to drive home. Carter failed the eye test portion of the sobriety test and was incapable of performing any of the others. When police finally were able to give Carter the breathalyzer - it first registered .467 BAC before simply displaying the word 'HI'.
Carter was arrested drunken driving. Bye-bye!
