Only an Aussie could pull this one off!

>>From the State where drink driving is considered a sport, comes a true
>>story from the Sunshine Coast, Queensland.
>>Recently a routine police patrol parked outside a local neighbourhood
>>tavern. Late in the evening the officer noticed a man leaving the bar
>>so intoxicated that he could barely walk. The man stumbled around the
>>car park for a few minutes, with the officer quietly observing. After
>>what seemed an eternity and trying his keys on five vehicles, the man
>>managed to find his car which he fell into.He was there for a few
>>minutes as a number of other patrons left the bar and drove off.
>>Finally he started the car,switched the wipers on and off (it was a
>>fine dry night), flicked the indicators on, then off, tooted the horn
>>and then switched on the lights.
>>He moved the vehicle forward a few cm, reversed a little and then
>>remained stationary for a few more minutes as some more vehicles left.
>>At last he pulled out of the car park and started to drive slowly down
>>the road.
>>The police officer, having patiently waited all this time, now started
>>up the patrol car, put on the flashing lights, promptly pulled the man
>>over and carried out a breathalyser test. To his amazement the
>>breathalyser indicated no evidence of the man having consumed alcohol
>>at all!
>>Dumbfounded, the officer said "I'll have to ask you to accompany me to
>>the Police station this breath-alyser equipment must be broken."
>>"I doubt it," said the man, "tonight I'm the designated decoy".
