If he'd been drinking on the way from Mass. to PA, I wonder why the son was given over to him. Of course, he may be really good at hiding it...
I feel sorry that the boy had to go through all of this.

I can't believe that is all he got, I thought they were cracking down on dui's, this idiot had a minor in the car. My daughter was stopped New Years Eve, was just over the limit. No one was with her, she was on a back road almost home, she had the book thrown at her, I am not saying oh my poor daughter, she shouldn't have driven home, she was at work and they had a few drinks there for the holiday, she deserved it, but what is it, if you know the right people you can skate almost free unless there's an injury or death, then they'll probably cover it up anyway.

He wandered from Exton (my old stomping grounds, Downingtown/Phoenixville area) to Macungie... some half decent miles between those two towns... he was most likely plastered! Poor kid though.

The old man was passed out at a parking lot. The kid was tired of dad sobering up.So he took over the driving, nailed a couple cars on the way .When the cops finally pulled them over, the kid switched seats again. the old man still doe'nt know what happened.His words to the cop was "WTF happened...?????Occifer....
