Is a Beer Cooler Really a Vehicle?

Now we’ve seen just about everything.  A man in Whitehall, New York was recently arrested for DUI after he was seen swerving around while driving his “Cruzin Cooler” – a beer cooler with three wheels, a handlebar and an electric motor.

Since when can you get arrested for DUI without the benefit of a car?  Well, as you can see in our own DUI Lite column, it happens all the time.  Recently we spotlighted a DUI case involving a man who was walking his bicycle across his own yard when he was arrested for DUI.  It just goes to show that in some cases a DUI arrest does not require a motor vehicle or the act of driving.
