    WCNC-TV, the Observer's news partner, is reporting that Waltrip underwent a field sobriety test after the wreck but passed the test. His alcohol blood level was below the .08 legal limit in North Carolina.
    I was about to ask...

    Made a U-turn in front of a motorcycle? The man is a menace.....He's a clown-like character in a drivers suit!
    My major malfunction is...I want the people I love and respect to live forever...The problem is...Life don't work that way...

    He remained at the scene? He's losing his edge.

    Unless it was a plate track, he wouldn't have been fast enough to get away.

    Did you read the comment that speculated the motorcyclist might have hit his car on purpose? What a maroon.

    maybe he was texting...

    I see it says that he was under the limit. It doesn't say that there was no alcohol...Maybe NASCAR should make him blow before each race...Is there a little smoke here? Just thinking out loud.

    Not knowing NC law, could he be charged with DUI (driving under the influence) vs DWI (driving while intoxicated) by measuring a .06?

    In Ontario, over 0.05 will get your license lifted and your car impounded for 72 hours. In addition, the charge goes on your drivers record so your insurance company is sure to find out. That ain't good. BTW, the "legal" limit is 0.08. Go figure!

    Two accidents in two years is much, much better than his near weekly record in NASCAR!

    Aloha Porshe Man,,,, and Jack the Ripper,,,

    All Right,,, All Right,,, That's It....


    Both of you are going to receive the much
    coveted,,,

    Big's Bingo Award for Humor...

    You too,,, to,,, two,,, guys are very funny
    this morning...

    Bingo,,, You Both Win One for "Humor"...

    I "think" his blood alcohol count was: .006,

    Two points below, the legal limit, this reported
    on Sirius Radio... Motorcyclist was also under
    the influence... Just not to the extent of Michael...

    At one time, almost 75% of all fatal motorcycle
    accidents were due to the fatal left hand turn
    syndrome, made by automobiles in front of a
    motorcyclist...

    I, some what liked Jaw's under-talented little
    brother, until he lied about the fuel cheating
    deal... And to bring his little daugther into the
    story, that was low rent... Now he's a drop dead
    phoney, in my little black book... He should of
    just made a statement like, "Yes I cheated, and
    I am very sorry,,, that I got caught"...

    I also think, that Buffie Buttercup, has pulled
    the pin, and left Mikey to cook his own. hard boiled
    eggs... That's is very sad for the little girls,
    divorce is so hard on the little ones...

    Mikey is gonna' live his life as he sees fit, and he could care less what I think, but to slam the door on his wife, the Buffster, and screw up his family life, just shows that Dear Mikey, is a little slow.
    His wife Buffy is:
    A. The woman who but up with his ignorant hind end for years.
    B. The Mother of his children.
    C. The brain's behind his success.(IT WASN'T HIM)That's for sure.
    D. His frickin' wife, You idiot!

    WAKE UP MIKEY, BEFORE IT'S TOO LATE!

    Just a bit curious...do you know the real story behind his marital situation? Maybe she shares some blame...I don't know. People in the spotlight don't live lives like most of us.

    I can't stand MW anymore than alot of folks, but only the people involved in a relationship know the real stories. Heck, half the US population get divorced these days so I am not sure that's an issue, you know?

    I don't think Mikey is the clean cool guy you see on TV. Just ask Lake Speed.

    Do a quick GOOGLE, and you'll see Mikey hasn't been exactly, shall we say...discreet? On the track, Mikey is a clown...on the other hand , he met my Mom, and was quite a gentleman......I'm not gonna' make a value judgement here, but his use of the frontal lobe, hasn't been the best.......

    Yeah, classic Mikey....Hit him twice while he was strapped into the car. Did the same thing to Rick Mast. I heard something about a little DISCUSSION in the men's room that, shall we say, Leveled out Mikey's karma....

    Over compensating perhaps? There are those who say that Mikey is a little well ... different, shall we say.

    Mikey blowing a 0.06 just months after fleeing the scene of a DUI accident can't be looked upon kindly by his sponsors.
