Florida Woman from The Villages is in trouble with the lawA woman arrested for drunk driving asked cops if they wanted to place a bet on what she registered on a breathalyzer test, according to court records.
Mary Westerlund, 62, was nabbed late Monday evening near her home in Florida's The Villages retirement community. Cops approached Westerlunds Acura after receiving a report of a drunk female being present at the Fire Station.
After being driven to the county lockup, Westerlund submitted two breath samples--but not before offering a police technician a 25-cent wager. Westerlund, who was convicted of drunk driving in 2015, estimated that she would blow a .190 BAC. The legal blood alcohol content level is .08.
The Intoxilyzer operator--who did not accept the two-bit offer--subsequently had Westerlund provide samples that registered her BAC at .229 and then .210.

(51,571 posts)1. I have friends that just moved to The Villages.
A couple of relatives familiar with the area have told me that that place is a wild senior area known for STDs! They drive golf carts instead of cars too. I wonder if the DUI was for one of those?
