WHOOPS

I’m a vehement opponent of drunk driving, but hypothetically, if you ARE going to drive after a few drinks, a good piece of advice is to not screech your tires while swerving to avoid crashing into a cop car. Unfortunately for “Burn Notice” star Jeffrey Donovan, this advice arrives too late. Radar has this error-filled fabrication:
After [Donovan] crashed into a Miami Beach Police Cruiser on July 11 around 11:50 pm he refused a breath test.
“I really think I’m only borderline and not too drunk – the only mistake I made tonight was to drink Benadryl with three glasses of wine,” Donovan said on the way to the police station…
“I asked the defendant if he was alright to which he answered – ‘Sorry I didn’t see the red light or your stop car,’’’ the officer [wrote].
Radar also links to the police report, in which the officer claims that Donovan said “stopped car” not “stop car” — and also SAYS NOTHING WHATSOEVER ABOUT A VEHICLE COLLISION. In fact, it explicitly states that Donovan swerved to avoid hitting the police cruiser. So the people at Radar are either liars or idiots. Or, more likely, both.

@Punch
I read it in his drug addict/alcoholic voice that he does fairly regularly.
He’s the ficitious soldier/spy that Andrea McNulty was talking about. Case closed.
I bet it was those fuckers in Management.
He was late too his meeting with Donte Stallworth.
When your a spy, driving into a police car is never a good thing. Driving into a police car under the influence is even worse.
It’s obvious he’s going undercover as a drunken idiot so to kill the Ukrainian arms dealer who was hiding in the trunk of the stop car.
It’s a spy thing; you wouldn’t understand.
It looks like this driver…got burned.
YYYYEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
In his defense, he had to drive because Toonces was fucking loaded.
“When you’re going to slam into a police cruiser, the key is to keep your mind limber with a steady regimen of drugs and alcohol.”
“Being a spy means you sometimes have to improvise. When things are tight, a shot of Benadryl and 3 glasses of wine will do the same job that normally takes 12 beers.”

Did anyone else read Donovan’s statement in his voice?
He was set up.
