You live and you learn. Some ideas that you come up with fall short of your expectations. For whatever reason, they don't work as you planned.
This is one of those examples. An unnamed 25-year-old Montana man had to take care ofan open containerfine. No big deal.
After a couple of drinks and bowls of marijuana, he decided to grab one for the road and pop into the Granite County Courthouse and Sheriff's Office to take care of business.

The plan started without a hitch. He had made it and was waiting to pay the fine at the Sheriff's Office when it all started to unravel for him.
It turns out it wasn’t the best idea to have those drinks before getting behind the wheel and driving down to the Sheriff's Office to pay the fine.
Not on Sheriff Barkell's watch anyway. When he asked the mn if he needed some help, his training and experience kicked in, and he knew that the 25-year-old was intoxicated.
According to a post on the Granite County Sheriff's Office'sFacebook page,"The male was asked to step outside and was then asked if he had driven here in his vehicle. In disbelief, the male replied, 'Yes.'"
He was then given a "proper scolding" and asked how many drinks he had consumed that day. He replied, "in slurred words" that he had had two drinks, which the Sheriff's Office pointed out "usually means two too many."
To top it all off, the man also told them he had smoked two bowls of marijuana. During the investigation into the matter, he agreed to a breath test which showed he was three times the legal limit.
