Around these parts, the sheriff was recently pulled over and arrested on, among other things, driving drunk. Not, say, blowing .08 and barely over the limit drunk, I mean blasted out of your gourg drunk.

Some years ago, a freeway ramp was being built as part of a road construction project. When the ramp was right in the middle of construction, the blueprint that detailed the roadway that was to go past a bridge abutment was found to be off by 1/8”. In reality, the error was off by 6’. The road, if completed as per the blueprint, would have hit the abutment straight on.

On the same construction project, a concrete bridge spanning some parts of an extensive interchange was constructed using a concrete mix that was good for 75 years when the specs for the job called for a concrete mix that was rated for 150 years. The entire concrete company went out of business over the error.
