Is Chappaquiddick in Lithuania?
Breitbart [via Drudge] brings us this little tale of drunk driving times eighteen.
In this excerpt, I have helpfully provided American translations in red brackets for certain Lithuanian terms:
Lithuanian [Massachusetts] police were so astonished when they pulled over a truck driver [Senator] and his breathalyzer test registered 18 times the legal alcohol limit, they thought their testing device must be broken. It wasn't.
Police said Tuesday [...] Vidmantas Sungaila [Ted and/or Patrick Kennedy] registered 7.27 grams per liter of alcohol in his blood repeatedly on different devices when he was pulled over for driving his truck [limo] down the center of a two-lane highway 60 miles from the capital, Vilnius on Saturday.Lithuania's [Massachusetts'] legal limit is 0.4 grams per liter.
"This guy should have been lying dead, but he was still driving. It
must be an unofficial national record," Saulius Skvernelis, the director of the
national police traffic control service, told the AP."He was of high spirits and grinning the whole time he was questioned."
Medical experts say anything above 3.5 grams per liter of alcohol in the
blood is lethal for most people.
