I served in South Korea. Soju is not a weaker vodka; I can assure you of that.

    Surprised this wasn’t a more clickbait headline:

    Police hate him; Soju manufactures love him; How one man was able to get out of a DUI with this weird trick

    Seriously though, what stops this from being a go to strategy for anyone pulled over on suspicion of a DUI? I guess you could argue it’s tampering with evidence?

      Some states have open container laws. I suspect the consequences for breaking that law are less than for DUI though.

      This man was still arrested and got lucky with the judge. A lot of judges would probably love to throw the book at this guy.

      In Germany, you could be hit with a DUI up to 6 hours after your incident.

      Meaning if you got into a crash and then went home. You decide to take a drink to calm your nerves, and then the police knock on your door 3 hours later… You’ll still get a DUI.
