“You guys gotta get here quick, there’s trees and houses all over the road, swerving left and right!”

“However … in this particular incident, nobody was hurt, so we couldn’t help but LOTO (that means we Laughed Our Tasers Off).”

I checked the article and that’s a legitimate quote. What.

If the gentleman’s car was subject to Lock-Out/Tag-Out, perhaps he wouldn’t have been driving it just then.

Those coppers were in Florida on holiday, just on their way to Disneyland when they decided to stop a drunk driver, just for the hell of it.

Or possibly someone half-arsed the picture.
