"Kocur, 39, was arrested in July 2001 for driving a riding lawnmower while intoxicated. It was his fifth drunken-driving offense, the first involving a lawn mower." -- CNN, August 22, 2002.

I am definately missing something on this one. I didn't know it was illegal to ride a lawnmower after having a few beers. The AP report doesn't ellaborate any further about the lawn mowing arrest. I guess they just assume that people already know it's illegal.
