Bow what?!

A Colorado man pulled over for speeding tried to put his dog in the hot seat.

On Facebook, the Springfield Police Department reported that when they stopped an unidentified male for driving 52 miles per hour in a 30 mile per hour zone on Saturday, the man “attempted to switch places with his dog who was in the passenger seat” as an officer approached the vehicle.

“The male party then exited the passenger side of the vehicle and claimed he was not driving,” the post went on.

The man tried to flee, but was quickly apprehended.

Not surprisingly, “The male party showed clear signs of intoxication” according to the Facebook post.

He ultimately was booked into the Baca County Jail in Springfield for his warrants and charged with “Driving under the influence of alcohol and/or drugs, driving while ability impaired, driving under suspension, speeding 20 to 24 over the speed limit and resisting arrest.”

Springfield PD said an acquaintance of the driver is looking after the dog. 

And they found some humor in the situation.

“The dog does not face any charges and was let go with just a warning,” Springfield PD wrote in the Facebook post. 

Critics were quick to poke fun at the driver selfishly roping an innocent pup into his crime.

“He was too drunk to use a GPS so he got a guide dog,” said one commenter.

“I wish my dog could drive,” said another.

Others were thankful that no humans — or animals — were injured.

“Seriously glad no one was hurt,” said one person.
