Miscellaneous: Today, after finishing work, my friend was having a party next...

Today, after finishing work, my friend was having a party next door and my driveway was blocked. I parked 6 houses down and went to the party for 20mins. After coming out after 3 beers, I went to move my car back to my house and go to sleep. I got a DUI for driving 30 feet. FML

Today, I was drunk and crashed on my friend's couch to sober up. On the drive home, a cop pulled me over for seemingly no reason. He kept asking if I had been drinking, to which I answered no. Finally, he told me to look in the mirror. My friends had written all over my face while I slept. FML

Today, I was the designated driver. On the way home with my drunk friends, they decide to give me a beer shower. I swerved, and was pulled over by a cop moments after. I was the only one arrested. FML

Today, I got shitfaced at a club. A cute girl I'd met earlier in the evening offered to drive me home in my car and spend the night with me. She crashed my car and did a runner before the cops showed up. They wouldn't believe my story. I now have a wrecked car and a DUI. FML

Today, I went to a party to see my crush. He offered me a drink and I declined telling him that I don't drink because alcohol makes people act stupid and crash their cars. He then saw me back into a car parked on the street and shatter my backlights as I reversed from the driveway to go home. FML

Today, I got a ticket for being drunk in public. I was walking a couple of blocks from the bar to my house, because I didn't want to drive drunk. FML

Today, while driving home after the legal curfew, I narrowly avoided a police roadblock and backtracked a mile to drive home another way. I then ran out of gas a mile away from my house. FML

Today, I attempted to make a good impression amongst new coworkers by volunteering to be the designated driver at my work party. What did that get me? A backseat full of puke and some idiot too drunk to remember where he lived. FML

Today, my best friend broke up with her partner. In retaliation, he got drunk and stole my car, then crashed it into a neighbour's house. Then after dealing with the police who didn't arrest him, he and my best friend made up and went to bed. FML

Today, I went out drinking with my friends. At the end of the night I got a cab ride home. I must have passed out because when I woke up I wasn’t at my place, but my parent’s house, which is the address on my license…120 miles away. The fare was $220. FML

You drank 3 beers in 20 minutes and then decided to get behind the wheel? YDI, even for 30 feet.

Should've left your car there and walked home.

YDI IS ******* RIGHT! How many ******* times do you hear about people getting hit even when the driver had just one. You had alachol in your system and you got behind the wheel, i dont give a dam if you live 30 ft away from your house, you deserved that ticket. any one who says that "oh dont be so harsh, 3 beers cant get a man drunk" i say **** you, what if someone did get hit because of this?

Yes, 30 feet down! Not only did they get hit, but got their brains splattered all over the windshield! Let's see - suppose you need to be going 30mph to kill someone (not sure the exact number). 30 mph = 44 feet per second, the OP says he had gone 30 feet, which means he needs to have accelerated to 44 fps in a distance of 30 feet, making his acceleration roughly 20 m/s^2, or 2x the G-force which is beyond an average car's capabilities. "An average sedan generates 0.60 G of lateral acceleration." (all google could provide for me) As per the above statement, the owner would have to have a car far exceeding the specs of an average street-legal one. You lose. Next!

Shut the hell up 59, if a person gets hit by a car driven by someone who has only had one drink, it is not the alcohol that caused the accident.

Don't drive when you're drunk. Enough said. Oh, and YDI.

This happened to my friend's dad. He lives two blocks down from the bar. Cop picked him up leaving the bar and he got an OVI (Ohio's "DUI") after driving less than several hundred feet. Not that I think it's ok that he tried to drive, but it is unfortunate that some people get away with driving intoxicated for miles on major roads, endangering people along the way; while others are just trying to go a few hundred feet to get home and they're the ones who end up being punished for it. IMO neither of those groups should be driving while intoxicated, but all I can say is: wouldn't it be nice if the world was fair...

all you guys saying YDI are idiots.... mostly your saying it because OP shouldn't drink and drive, why would you drive to the party?, and why didn't you just leave it.... well first of all the OP wasnt really driving, he was just moving his car a few houses up to avoid any confrontation with whoevers house they parked in front of. secondly at the beginning the OP says they are coming home from work and going to the party next door and couldn't park in there own drive way..... that's how the car got to the party. and lastly from reading most of these FMLs you should all know that people are assholes and If the OP had left the car in it's original spot this fml may have turned into "today I had to park six doors down from my house because my spot was taken, I was at my neighbours party and had a few beers So I decided to it was best to leave it where it was. my car was keyed, they left a note saying 'park in your own spot next time asshole' FML" then I bet the same people would say YDI because you too are assholes...

YDI for: 1) Drinking 3 beers in 20 minutes. 2) Walking back up 6 houses to pull your car back to where you just walked by. Why not just walk up the 6 houses in the morning when you leave?
