Dustin Rittgers' first mistake was allegedly drinking and driving. His second mistake was to video himself doing just that and post it to Facebook—publicly. At least one of the 28-year-old Ohio man's friends was not amused, commenting, "Dude, Really!!!!!" to which Rittgers responded, "I am a good driver, don't worry. I've got one finger on the steering wheel Facebooking while it's raining. Smh, i am good. I am a pro." Someone reported him to local authorities, who pulled him over hours later in Franklin County, ABC 13 reports. He's facing five misdemeanor charges, the AP reports, including driving while impaired and having an open container in a vehicle. (More drunk driving stories.)
