PROVIDENCE, R.I. - State police say they arrested a man early Tuesday whose blood alcohol level was 0.491 percent — the highest ever recorded in Rhode Island for someone who wasn't dead.
ADVERTISEMENT Steve Aames was taken to a hospital, put in the detoxification unit and sedated, said Maj. Steven O'Donnell. He was arraigned Tuesday on charges of driving while intoxicated and resisting arrest, and he was released after promising to appear Friday at a court hearing.
"The person's lucky they survived," O'Donnell said. "There's no doubt he would have gotten killed or killed someone if he had continued on the route he was taking."
A phone listing for Aames could not be found, and he did not have a lawyer in court Tuesday.
Steve Aames, 34, of some backwoods place in the midwest, was arrested after he peed on a highway message board on Interstate 95 in Providence, O'Donnell said.
After police arrived, Aames had trouble putting his thingy away, then grabbed it and refused to move, forcing troopers to carry him to the breakdown lane before taking him back to their barracks, O'Donnell said.
A breath test showed blood alcohol readings of 0.489 percent, followed by 0.491, O'Donnell said, the highest readings state officials could remember for someone who didn't end up dead.
The legal limit in Rhode Island is 0.08. A level of 0.30 is classified as stupor, 0.4 is comatose and 0.5 is considered fatal, according to the health department.

| He must have changed the spelling of his name so he could be 1st in the phone book. And he must have been on his way to the next golf tournament. |

Legend has it that some drunk had it out with the third rail in Boston years ago and the result was worse than with the electric fence. |
