David Newton, of ESPN.com, reports Richard Petty Motorsports driver A.J. Allmendinger was charged with drunken driving Thursday, Oct. 29. He was driving a 2007 Lexus when he was pulled over at 1:27 a.m. Police said he blew a .08 on a breathalyzer test. Allmendinger's court date is set for Dec. 18. He will still be in the car for the Sprint Cup race at Talladega Superspeedway this weekend.
Damn .08 is just BARELY legally drunk, I would bet that he was barely feeling it. I know that .08 is LEGALLY drunk, but man, if he was 1/100 of a precentage point lower (maybe 1/2 sip of a beer) they would have let him drive home and we would have never heard of this.
I hope he gets the case dropped and/or this doesnt ruin his Nascar carreer.
Plus Michael Waltrip has one of these stories every year it seems.
