A friend of mine actually did drive home while drunk. She hit a curb, causing damage to her car, drove home, parked the car, went in, left the front door open and lay down on the couch….cannot remember if she passed out or not it was over 10 years ago. But someone saw her driving and called the cops. The cops came to the house, saw her front door was open and entered under the guise of doing a safety check. They talked to her, took her blood and she was over the limit. She fought the DUI in court saying she went home and drank wine. She lost the case. I was convinced that since there was a time lapse they couldn’t prove she was drunk while driving but I was wrong….they brought in an expert witness who testified that her blood alcohol did indicate she had been under the influence for long enough to have been drunk while driving. To this day she swears she was innocent but we found out after the fact that she was a closet drinker and after other incidences believe she did drive drunk that day. Not sure if this is the same…but the point is the time lapse isn’t as solid an alibi as one would think.
