Chicago DUI lawyer comments on DUI in a golf cart

This Chicago DUI lawyer has posted about DUI's on horseback, snowmobiles, and toy bikes, now comes news of a DUI in a golf cart on a golf course.

September 25, Papillion, NE

The attorney for a Sarpy County woman accused of killing her friend in a golf cart crash tried to have the charges in the case dismissed on Friday.

Police said Kim McIllece was driving a golf cart at Tiburon when she hit a culvert. The cart flipped over, killing her friend, Debi Deines.

McIllece was charged with motor vehicle homicide and driving under the influence of alcohol. Police said her blood-alcohol level was twice the legal limit.

McIllece's attorney said Nebraska DUI laws shouldn't apply in this case because a golf cart is not considered a vehicle.

Well for those of you living in golfing communities or out playing a round, definitely get a designated driver.
