FLORIDUH Man Arrested in Driving Incident Blames Wikipedia For Bad Legal Advice! – Gossip Extra
Justin Miret probably wont be getting any more legal advice from Wikipedia (via Facebook)
PORT ST. LUCIE Realtor Justin Miret, 22, picked the wrong stop sign to run Friday night in what developed into an odd and expensive ordeal.
Miret was pulled over for the moving violation by a St. Lucie County patrolman, whichfor most peoplewould just be a spot of bad luck resulting in nothing more serious than a small fine and possibly a brief court appearance.
The ante on this particular incident was upped considerably as the officer made the discovery that Mirets drivers license was suspended and he didnt have insurance.
Were one tempted to give Miret the benefit of the doubt and assume that hed merely been uncharacteristically forgetful about these little administrative matters, his response to the officer would likely be cause to think again.
Thats the last time I listen to Wikipedia about driving, Miret asserted boldly. It said I would just get a ticket.
You cant believe everything you read online (St. Lucie County Jail photo)
He followed this up with some screaming, then balled his fists to try to intimidate the patrolman, a foolproof strategy if ever there was one.
Somehow, this tactic didnt work, and Miret found himself arrested and loaded into the back of the officers police cruiser. While there, he continued to grouse about the quality of Wikipedias legal advice and attempted to slough off blame onto the popular website.
His almost palpable discontent with Wikipedia notwithstanding, Miret made no waves during his trip to the St. Lucie County Jail. His vehicle was towed and he was charged with misdemeanors, with an arraignment scheduled for April 11th. Presently, he is free on a bond of $1,125.
This isnt the only driving mishap Miret has suffered in recent memory. On his Facebook page in September, he posted, Someone just rear ended me getting off 95 on Gatlin. Everyone is okay but just so annoying. Dont freaking text and drive!
A fair point. Also: Dont freaking drive without a license or insurance.
Still, Miretposted the following quote to Facebook in October: They say we learn from our mistakes. Thats why Im deliberately making as many as possible. Soon Ill be a genius.
Lets hope so.
