Drunk Driver Tells Deputies To Take Him To Jail

According to the sheriff's office, 72-year-old John Watson was stopped for driving over the speed limit on U.S.-17 and told the deputy that he was drunk and to take him to jail.
He apparently hadn't done too well on the sobriety tests, which include a one-leg stand and the "finger to nose" test.

When asked if he wanted to try the tests again, deputies say Watson told them "No" and to just take him to jail.

Watson is charged with driving under the influence. He was being held at the Crescent City Police Department. There, breath tests placed his blood-alcohol level well over the Florida limit of .08ht. His was at .199 and .198.

Why fight it right? Might as well save the time and embarrassment.
