Drinking & Driving, On My Cooler!
Leslie J. "Bomber" Marr learned this the hard way when he was arrested on Memorial Day in Whitehall, NY and charged with DWI and aggravated unlicensed operation of a motor vehicle after police saw him swerving around the streets and driving on the sidewalk, on a cooler.
Marr was driving around town on a Cruizin' Cooler, which puts a seat on top of a three wheeled cooler and attaches an electric motor similar to those found on electric scooters. It even has a hatch so you can pull out a icy cold drink while driving. The hatch also has a cup/can holder on top, suggesting that this sort of activity is exactly what the designers had in mind.
Under state law, however, the cooler is still considered a motor vehicle so sobriety is a must, and a license is highly recommended.
