Is it wrong to laugh at this?

The highlights:

 

"How do you become a celebrity? How about being charged with drunken driving while you and a friend are trying to drive the same pickup truck home. It worked for two men, Harvey Miller, 43, and Edwin Marzinske, 55."

 

"Both were cited for drunken driving and driving while revoked. They're planning to defend themselves in court with an argument that neither had control, so neither was driving."

 

"Marzinske acknowledged the arrest was embarrasing. I asked my daughter right out, 'Are you embarrassed about this?'" he said. "She says, 'A little bit Dad, but it sure is funny.' So we just have fun with it. There isn't much else you can do."

Miller said he takes drunken driving seriously, "but we were doing things as safe as possible."

 

Come again?

 

Meh, they probably weren't that drunk, since they managed to control the vehicle using the paired control system they had going and managed to not hit anyone or anything. Then again, it's Wisconsin, so that's moot anyways.
