montster Posted July 23, 2008 Share Posted July 23, 2008 http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/odd_extremely_drunk State police say they arrested a man early Tuesday whose blood alcohol level was 0.491 percent — the highest ever recorded in Rhode Island for someone who wasn't dead. Stanley Kobierowski was taken to a hospital, put in the detoxification unit and sedated, said Maj. Steven O'Donnell. He was arraigned Tuesday on charges of driving while intoxicated and resisting arrest, and he was released after promising to appear Friday at a court hearing. "The person's lucky they survived," O'Donnell said. "There's no doubt he would have gotten killed or killed someone if he had continued on the route he was taking." A phone listing for Kobierowski could not be found, and he did not have a lawyer in court Tuesday. Kobierowski, 34, of North Providence, was arrested after he drove into a highway message board on Interstate 95 in Providence, O'Donnell said. After police arrived, Kobierowski had trouble getting out of the car, then grabbed it and refused to move, forcing troopers to carry him to the breakdown lane before taking him back to their barracks, O'Donnell said. A breath test showed blood alcohol readings of 0.489 percent, followed by 0.491, O'Donnell said, the highest readings state officials could remember for someone who didn't end up dead. The legal limit in Rhode Island is 0.08. A level of 0.30 is classified as stupor, 0.4 is comatose and 0.5 is considered fatal, according to the health department.

Big Country Posted July 23, 2008 Share Posted July 23, 2008 but with twiley, you don't measure the amount of alcohol in his blood stream, you measure the amount of blood in his alcohol stream. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
piratesownninjas Posted July 23, 2008 Share Posted July 23, 2008 Holy crap... When I saw the title I was sure that the guy they found was passed out... How did he get his keys in the ignition? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
REZ Posted July 25, 2008 Share Posted July 25, 2008 I'm pretty sure H8's alcohol level was beyond that a couple times while we were in Vegas. I know the first year he was seriously pounding. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
