One of the stereotypes of Florida is that it’s packed with drunk elderly people driving golf carts around. And it’s not NOT true.
A 65-year-old man in Florida named James Prante called 911 earlier this month, after his wife fell out of their golf cart, hit her head, and was unconscious.
When the cops arrived, they noticed that James appeared intoxicated. He admitted that they had been “partying at the club” since noon. It was around 9:00 P.M. at the time, and he failed sobriety tests.
He was arrested and charged with DUI with serious bodily injury. Thankfully, his wife should be okay. She’s in the hospital in stable condition.
They were NOT on a golf course at the time . . . this was a regular street. So officials are reminding people that you can’t drive ANYTHING after you have been drinking. It’s dangerous for you and everyone around you.
