(You know what state) man blames his dog for bad driving. [View all]

More in the ongoing adventures of Florida man;

OCTOBER 8--After leading police on a high-speed chase that ended last night with his vehicle crashing into a building, an ex-con told Florida cops that, “My dog was driving that car.”

According to a police report, officers began chasing a car driven by Reliford Cooper III after the vehicle was spotted speeding around 7:45 PM Wednesday.

With police in pursuit, Cooper, 26, raced through a stop sign and drove through two ditches before crashing into an occupied home on a street in Palmetto, a city 15 miles north of Sarasota.

Cooper, who smelled of booze and marijuana, asked cops, “Who was chasing me?” He added, “You slow as fuck!” But Cooper then disavowed being at the wheel, claiming, “My dog was driving that car, I ran cause I wanted to. You ain’t gonna find no drugs or guns on me.”
