Lou Diamond Phillips learned a very important lesson this morning. If you are going to drive drunk (WHICH YOU SHOULD NOT DO), do not stop and ask a cop for directions. According to
San Antonio Express News, he pulled over and asked a cop for directions at 1:35a in Portland, Texas. The officer then says that he noticed he that the actor showed signs of intoxication, so the officer administered field sobriety tests which he failed. When they got back to the station, they say he blew a 0.20 BAC which is more than twice the legal limit.
The Texas native is in town to speak at the Voices of South Texas – Old Bayview Cemetery Comes Alive event. No word if he will make it because he is still be processed at the San Patricio County Jail in Sinton.
