Woman In Drive .55 Bust
Oregon DUI arrestee sets female blood alcohol content record
DECEMBER 27
Meet Meagan Harper. The Oregon woman recorded a whopping .55 blood alcohol level content reading after DUI / DWI police found her passed out last month in a car parked outside a pizza joint. The 30-year-old Harper, who has several prior dui / drunk driving convictions, yesterday appeared in a Clackamas County court, where a judge set her bail at $50,000.
At the time of her DUI arrest, Harper was taken to an Oregon hospital, where her BAC was measured at nearly seven times the state's .08 drunk driving limit. Considering her clear eyes and alert appearance, it seems that the below mug shot of the 5' 11", 130-pound Harper was taken after she sobered up.
Harper's .55 ranks her third on the list of arrestees with towering BAC contents (as covered by TSG). She trails only Indiana's Willard Ashley III, who blew a remarkable .69 in October 2003 and the record is a .72 reported in Riga , Latvia in 2003.
At least she wasn't driving at the time, comments a San Diego DUI lawyer.
