Jesus Takes The Wheel…In Florida

Yes, File 13 turns now to Leesburg, FloriDUH, where 52-year old Kristen Betz has just been arrested–for DUI and reckless driving–after getting all liquored up, on Sunday, and tailgating a Lake County Sheriff’s deputy.   And she may also have won our “Weak Excuse of the Week” award.

Yep, seems the deputy was driving his patrol car along Highway 144 when he noticed ol’ K-Betz…in her VW…right behind him, within inches of his bumper.

And when he moved over a lane, she moved too, and stayed there, right on his bumper.

Then she pulled alongside the deputy–and began staring at him–before swerving in the deputy’s direction three times, almost causing the two cars to crash.

And it was after the deputy pulled her over–and asked just why she was driving in such a dangerous manner–that she offered up her “award-winning excuse”.

Yes, seems she told the deputy that she “had to do it”, because “Jesus commanded me to”.
