A drunk driver blows through a red light on Glenwood Avenue and T-bones a compact car driven by an Orhtopaedic Surgeon. It's 12:30PM on Black Friday. I get there and two witnesses report seeing the drunken fool, who is denying having ever imbibed in his life, pass cars in the turn lane so he can blow through the intersection unimpeded. I give him sobriety tests and he fails miserably, although he disagrees. "I passed all your tests with flying colors, Officer."
He's arrested and blows well over the legal limit down at the Wake County Jail. I have the pleasure of listening to his phone conversation with his wife. "I don't know why I'm here. I haven't had anything to drink. I did nothing wrong. I passed all the sobriety tests. I didn't run any red light. That light was either orange or green! They arrested for no reason at all and my attorney is going to take care of this, just like last time."
It must be blissful living in fantasy land.

as punishment can the orthopaedic surgeon remove his spine? (sans anesthesia of course?)
yup, the light was orange - you clearly had the right of way there
