Today, I was arrested for DWI in my own apartment complex. I had to be released into the custody of a sober adult, but I wasn't allowed access to my phone to get any numbers. I only have a few memorized. So I was picked up from jail by my ex-girlfriend and her fiancé - my manager at work. FML

Go to ******* hell, OP. Here's hoping you wind up with your head inside a tree trunk sooner or later. Two of my friends have died thanks to people like you.

It sounds like you need a little help figuring out that whole "cause -> effect" relationship thing. Time to ask for help...

Is it just me or is Snickerdoodles the snottiest little know-it-all teenager on FML? Everytime I see her horse face on here I cringe.

She's just an obnoxious moron that likes to come to this site to troll, hence her illogical nasty comments. This site would be better if people just ignored her stupidity.

elle39: The only time I can think of where it didn't include driving, is if the person was in the car. That's why people say that if you're going to take a nap in your car, put your keys in the trunk. As long as you don't have the means to drive, i.e your keys, then they can't arrest you. They can't give you a DUI for being in your house, though. The abbreviation is very clear, "Driving Under the Influence," or "Driving While Intoxicated." It has to have some type of vehicle involved. Maybe you just heard the news stories wrong, or you could have misinterpreted them.

isn't apartment complex a private area, including the driveways? In that case, I'd check the DUI laws in your state - it is likely to limit the DUIs to public roads only.

I don't think the parking lots/spots are private property. Wisconsin is an Implied Consent state, which says that if you operate a vehicle, you are consenting to sobriety testing. Also, if someone called the OP in for driving erratically around the parking lot, the police would have cause to be there. When Ive lived in apartment/condo complexes, the police would drive through to patrol, often. That's just where Ive lived, though. Ive never been in a gated complex, though. There could be different laws to that.

Yeah, I just looked it up. The only private property is single family homes or farms. They said parking lots for apartment buildings with more than 4 tenants is considered for public use. Whether or not it's privately owned. They also specified property provided by an employer for employees to park their vehicles.

Drunk driving kills. I don't know what they do to drunk drivers in Wisconsin, but I hope it includes hearing victim impact statements after a conviction of vehicular manslaughter. Stop that right now.
