Think this kid is headed for a tough future? It seems that a Washington state 17-year-old was arrested for drunk driving. Apparently the combination of a minor driver (statistically the most dangerous) and drinking is not something Washington worries about, since it let the boy go. Washington cracks down on adults who drink and drive, though. Later that night, the same cop stopped the same kid for drinking and driving. Unfortunately for the kid (but apparently a huge stroke of good fortune for the good citizens of Washington), as night turned to early morning, he turned eighteen. Just like that, he got his very first adult DUI and was promptly locked up.
The same (former) kid had been stopped for drunk driving earlier in the month. Did nobody tell him that the get-out-of-jail-free cards he had been getting as a juvenile would out when he turned eighteen? Geez, what good are high school counselors, anyway?
