Politician was driving county-owned vehicle…another good reason that these blood-sucking politicians shouldn’t get taxpayer provided vehicles…

From Baltimore Sun
Baltimore County Councilman Todd Huff was arrested Saturday under suspicion of driving under the influence in Towson, county police said.
The 44-year-old Lutherville Republican is charged with driving while under the influence of alcohol, a headlight violation and negligent driving, police said. He allegedly had a blood-alcohol level that was more than twice the legal limit.
Huff was traveling north on York Road near Washington Avenue around 2:30 a.m. in a silver Jeep Grand Cherokee, which is owned by the county, according to a statement of charges filed by police. An officer observed the vehicle traveling with no headlights and saw it come to a sudden stop at a red light, passing the crosswalk of the intersection.
When the officer tried to stop the councilman, Huff drove a half-block and pulled into the parking lot of the Brooks-Huff Tire & Auto Center in the 900 block of York Road, a business his family owns, according to the statement of charges.
