A highway patrolman pulls over this motorist who'd been weaving
erratically in and out of all three freeway lanes for several miles. He
approaches the motorist's window carefully, holds out a plastic tube and
says, "Sir, I'll need you to blow into this breathalyzer."
"I'm sorry, officer, I can't do that", replies the guy, "I'm an asthmatic,
and if I do that I could have a bad asthma attack."
"Yes, sir. Then I'm going to have to ask you to come down to the
station with me to give us a blood sample."
"Uh, I can't do that either, officer. I suffer from a life-threatening
form of hemophilia, and if my skin is punctured in any way, especially by
a sharp needle, I could easily bleed to death."
"No problem, sir, then we'll just take a urine sample."
"I'm awful sorry, officer, I also have a diabetes, and if I pee this
late at night, I'll get low blood sugar, possibly even go into cardiac
arrest."
"Yes, sir. Then I'll need you to step out of your vehicle and walk a
straight line for me right here and now."
"Uh... I can't do that either, officer."
"And why is *that*, Sir?"
"Why? Because I'm *drunk*, you f***ing moron!"
