Franklin Police Solves DUI Problem


The City of Franklin , Tennessee , Ajax here - the local paper , The TENNESSEAN , is always printing horror stories about people driving while drinking and of course , getting arrested multiple times for DUI.
Well , leave it to The Franklin Police Department , in Franklin , Tennessee , to solve this small problem. They give " courtesy " authority and priority to their favorite list of people , so should they get stopped for DUI , the police Chief shows up on the scene and personally drives them home.
This solution has drastically dropped the number of court cases heard behind The Greek Columns @ The Justice Center for DUI offenders and perpetrator cases. With this reduction in DUI workloads , justice officials have found more time in their work week , to schedule more drinking and driving fun at the golf range.
In years past , it was Commander Barnes' responsibility to protect those certain favored people from DUI charges. Upon his retirement , those responsibilities were passed on to someone else.
Today , it is now everyone's responsibility to attend , the Police Citizens Academy , to learn who is who and what responsibility tasks they have been assigned. ( and remember to bring lots of c.a.s.h. to class :) for those important introductions and also , for those highly lucrative FOP membership ball caps.
