A Minnesota man has been convicted after driving his motorized La-Z-Boy lounge chair into a parked vehicle while under the influence of alcohol.

The 62-year-old drove his motorized chair into a vehicle parked near the bar where he had consumed several beers. According to a report from the Duluth News-Tribune, his blood-alcohol content was measured at 0.29, more than three times the legal limit to drive.

An officer with the Proctor, Minn., police said, "The chair was powered by a converted lawnmower with a Briggs & Stratton engine. It has a stereo, cup holders and other custom options, including different power levels...The chair had a small steering wheel, about a third of the size of a golf cart's, coming straight up from the middle of the La-Z-Boy."

Perhaps DWR (driving while reclined) laws soon will hit the books.
