How many DUIs are enough? This is probably not a difficult question for most of us to answer. In fact, we guess we would all probably say that one DUI should be enough. Unfortunately not everyone thinks like the rest of us. For example, this past week a Spotsylvania, Virginia man, was arrested for his 12th DUI offense. Yep, an even dozen. And he was nice enough to not just focus his drunk driving on one state and community but rather spread it across many states. According to authorities, this man has received DUIs in not one, not two, but FIVE states. This includes Mississippi, Alabama, Virginia, North Carolina and Washington. During his 12th DUI arrest, the man, being so familiar with the process, literally walked up to the police car after being pulled over with his hands out waiting to be cuffed. When police started calling around to other states to check on the man’s history, they started uncovering the deluge of DUIs. They also uncovered warrants for his arrest in other states like Alaska for criminal trespass. Who knows why this man has been given so many chances or why law enforcement was unable to figure things out after the 2nd, 3rd, or even 7th DUI. At least no one has ever been hurt by this man’s irresponsibility and now he is behind bars. Read the original story below.
