Another fine Florida citizen, ready with an explanation:
Police: Man says strip club visit covered under work-only driver's license
A West Palm Beach man told police his restricted driver's license applied to a trip to a strip club because he was there for business.
Juan Esparza Guerrero, 47, was pulled over by Largo police for speeding about 4 a.m. Feb. 10 at Ulmerton Road and Automobile Boulevard, according to his arrest report. Guerrero, whose driver's license allows him to drive only for work purposes, told the officer he was coming from Oz Ladies' and Gentlemen's Club near U.S. 19 and Ulmerton Road.
He explained that a client was in town to look at a property and that the two went for drinks at the club afterward, the report says. During the stop, the officer noticed Guerrero had bloodshot eyes and the smell of alcohol on his breath.
He failed field sobriety tests and was arrested on a driving under the influence charge. The officer also arrested Guerrero on a charge of a violation of driver's license restrictions.
They didn't state what his business was and why he had to do it in the wee hours of the morning, when the only people who should be up are hard working railroaders, moving the nation's freight. Beating the DWI charges while driving on a restricted license might be difficult, though.
