HAVE YOU BEEN DRINKING, SIR?
Officer Kevin Burns made a remarkable 1,590 DWI arrests in his 27-year career working for the town of Southbury, CT, from 1989 to 2016. Early in his career, fed up with being called to accidents caused by drunk drivers, he decided to do something about it. He determined the best way to prevent such accidents was to stop drunk drivers before they crashed. "I saw DWI detection enforcement as preventing homicide/suicide/assault with a motor vehicle." Such an illustrious achievement should be celebrated by law enforcement, and Kevin Burns crowned a hero. Instead, he suffered discrimination at the hands of his department, including being unjustly accused of offenses that earned him a sixty-day suspension. Failure to Drive Right tells the stories of over one hundred of Officer Burns's more memorable DWI arrests in his career. From the lady partying after an AA meeting to the one with a baby strapped in the backseat, and the man driving drunk on a lawn tractor to the one Burns arrested eight times, Burns's stories are compelling and perhaps even familiar to those from the Southbury area. Burns includes a chapter revealing both the details of his unjust suspension and how he missed out on a well-deserved promotion. He also debunks the myths associated with Officer Burns, and explains how to beat a DWI.EXTRA 10 % discount with code: EXTRA
