A Kitimat man found out the hard way last week that wanting your own bed is not an excuse for driving drunk.
Last Monday, RCMP received a report of a driver departing the City Centre Mall for their vehicle, beer in hand.
Shortly afterwards, police located the man and initiated a traffic stop, during which the man promptly walked away.
When they informed the man he was being investigated for impaired driving, he told them he had just driven himself home, and was just going to go to bed.
The man was issued a 90 day driving probation, and 30 day vehicle impoundment, after continually refusing to take a breath test.
