Exactly Larry! lol what's worse an Amish man driving a buggy under the influence or being the guy who has to arrest him for doing so?

I'm not totally up on Amish lifestyle, are they allowed to drink?

I wonder what he did when told he can make 1 phone call?

they are a very strict and devout religious community. They avoid many forms of technology if possible so as to avoid distractions. They do use some forms of tobacco, but do not use cigarettes because they're considered wordly. Most do not approve of alcohol either.

I'm wondering how they impounded the horse.

Some Amish are allowed to drink by their church rules some are not, but drinking to excess would be looked down upon. During Rumspringa (runing around time) Amish youths can do allot of things that would normally be frowed upon, drinking, driving and owning cars. etc.

The Amish are definitely up on a few things ...
Perhaps this was the same guy.

I have a friend who was given a DUI (in PA) for riding a bike.

They should have breathalyzed the horses. They were the ones veering over the line.

I've finally found an amish person I would like to hang out with. I wonder if he smokes cigars?

This story reminds me of a couple Amish guys that used to come to fix things at the stable I worked at. They would giggle like a couple schoolgirls when we let them use power tools and listen to baseball on the radio.

I have a hard enough time putting up with the old ass drivers on the road around here let alone drunk amish.

Cop should have just drove him home.
