Default DUI offense unconstitutional?

Georgia state senator David Graves, 47, says that because his drinking was part of an "official legislative function," the state's constitution protects him from an arrest for drunk driving, his second offense within 13 months. Cobb
County State Court Judge Irma B. Glover ruled the constitutional
provision doesn't exempt Graves from prosecution, so his lawyer,
William "Bubba" Head, appealed to the state's Supreme
Court. Its ruling is still pending. (Atlanta Journal-Constitution)


Let's hope the reason it's still pending is because they can't stop laughing.
