An ambulance crew in Nevada found a new way to save lives by pulling over a woman apparently too drunk to realize EMTs don't have arresting powers or notice the gas nozzle sticking out of the tank on her Subaru wagon.

April Westfall, the 40-year-old owner of the Subaru Legacy Outback, didn't notice or didn't care about the Reno ambulance crew attempting to signal to her she was dragging about eight-feet of gas hose connected to the nozzle sticking out of her tank. Unable to get her to slow down, the ambulance then turned on their lights and conducted a quasi-legal traffic stop before calling real state troopers.

Not surprisingly, the woman failed a field sobriety and was booked into the Washoe County Jail. Surprisingly, the woman managed to drive so far with the hose that the police have been unable to determine what gas station it came from.

What happens in Reno is usually a sadder and dimmer version of what happens in Vegas.

    Hehe. I wouldn't be surprised if it was a mayor, congresswoman or senator. :eek:

    Kidding aside, that's pretty damned drunk! Wow.

    Wow. There was a disturbing picture. She could of blown herself and others
    all to hell. Gas station whoops shouldn't be taken lightly. You ever see
    a pump go, you'll remember it. Not quite as bad as the local guy that drove down mainstreet with a guy dragging underneath. Get the drunks off the
    road. These guys saved somebodies life by stopping her.

    My daughter babysits for a couple related to the local chief of police. They drink before going out, while out, and after they get home. We've had to drive our daughter both ways every time to keep her out of harms way but they do pay here big bucks to cover it.

    They've been pulled over several time in the past year with NO TICKETS !!

    That woman should go STRAIGHT to 30+ day REHAB!!! She does not look good for 40.
    Well, to me she does, but, she looks older than 40.
    I refuse to argue with idiots, because people can't tell the DIFFERENCE!
