Police in Wisconsin USA have busted 49-year-old Mary Strey for drunk-driving after she called 911 from her car to report herself. A partial transcript of the 911 call reads as follows:

Dispatcher: Clark County 911
Mary Strey: Somebody's really drunk driving down Granton Road...
Dispatcher: ...Which way are they going?
Mary Strey: They are going, um...
Dispatcher: Towards Granton or towards Neillsville?
Mary Strey: Towards Granton
Dispatcher: Okay are you behind them, or...
Mary Strey: No, I am them
Dispatcher: You am them?
Mary Strey: Yes, I am them
Dispatcher: Okay, so you want to call and report that you're driving drunk?
Mary Strey: Yes

Police say Ms. Strey pulled over when the dispatcher asked her to stop, and she was arrested after she failed a 'field sobriety test'. The full report from the arresting officer is here - (PDF download).
 
Having spent time in many local district courts I can safely say we have quite a few contenders for the title of chief loser here in Ireland too.
 
Her name, address, phone number, date of birth all perfectly accessible in one handy document :) wonder if she gets any phonecalls from admiring drunken nights out?
