Great Return Of S(w)erve

If you're driving a horse and buggy and you're DUI, please don't do what this bloke did. Patrick Maloney of London Free Press reports on cnews.com that a 29-year-old man faces alcohol-related charges after his horse and buggy nearly hit not one but two police cruisers, north of Stratford. The officers were forced to swerve to avoid a horse-drawn carriage being ``operated in a dangerous manner''. The official statement issued by police said, ``In this case, the buggy didn't have any lights or reflectors''. The officers found a 24-pack of beer and arrested the man who was ``extremely intoxicated''.
But here's the real debate, folks. Was the bloke on the wagon? (And if you listen really carefully, you'll hear my fellow blogger Allan Cook groaning at that line!)

Sorry!
