So the real question then is why does a recovering alcoholic have a previously opened bottle of vodka in the cab of his vehicle? Wouldn't that also be illegal? Not to mention stupid? Because I'm quite certain that if I went to take a drink out of my water bottle, and just picked up a vodka bottle instead, when I opened it, if it wasn't already open, I would look at it when I felt the seal crack.
Maybe I don't have the facts straight? Was it a half empty bottle of vodka sitting in his cab? Do you think it's wise as a recovering alcoholic to have one within reach while you're driving?
It's just so much BS, I do hope the cross examiner tore a hole through his testimony.
