GA state Rep. Tom Taylor busted for DUI

Video surfaced on Tuesday showing Georgia Republican state Rep. Tom Taylor’s arrest on April 7 for driving under the influence.
The 54-year-old lawmaker falsely claimed that he was not intoxicated, that he had not been drinking on the day of his arrest and that the open container of alcohol in his lap was “probably from yesterday.”

... he then told the officers that he had some wine the night before and was probably just hung over.
Taylor’s blood alcohol was .225 — nearly three times the legal limit

At the time of his arrest – which took place at 2:45 in the afternoon – Taylor was wearing a gun on his hip and driving with four children in the car. He was pulled over by police for driving at 72 miles per hour in a zone marked 45.

Taylor is currently running for re-election to represent Atlanta’s affluent Dunwoody neighborhood.
