This could work folks...
One night, a police officer was stalking out a particularly rowdy biker bar for possible violations of the Driving-Under-the-Influence laws.
At closing time, he saw one of the bikers stumble out of the bar, trip on the curb,and try his keys on five different bikes before he found his.
Then the biker sat on a bike fumbling around several minutes, looking as if he might pass out right there. Everyone left the bar and rode off.
Finally, he started his engine and began to pull away. The police officer was waiting for him.
He stopped the biker,read him his rights and administered the Breathalyzer test. The results showed a reading of 0.0. The puzzled officer demanded to know how that could be.
The biker replied, "Tonight, I'm the Designated Decoy."

Drink Driving... THIS is absolutely brilliant!
Only an Aussie could pull this one off!
A true story from the Mount Isa in Queensland .
Recently a routine Police patrol car parked outside a local neighbourhood pub.
Late in the evening the officer noticed a man leaving the bar so intoxicated that he could barely walk.
The man stumbled around the car park for a few minutes, with the officer quietly observing. After what seemed an eternity and trying his keys on five vehicles. The man managed to find his car, which he fell into.
He was there for a few minutes as a number of other patrons left the bar and drove off. Finally he started the car, switched the wipers on and off (it was a fine dry night). Then flicked the indicators on, then off, tooted the horn and then switched on the lights.
He moved the vehicle forward a few cm, reversed a little and then remained stationary for a few more minutes as some more vehicles left. At last he pulled out of the car park and started to drive slowly down the road.
The Police officer, having patiently waited all this time, now started up the patrol car, put on the flashing lights, promptly pulled the man over and carried out a random breathalyser test.
To his amazement the breathalyser indicated no evidence of the man's intoxication.
The Police officer said 'I'll have to ask you to accompany me to the Police station - this breathalyser equipment must be broken.'
'I doubt it,' said the man, 'tonight I'm the designated decoy'.

Don't know where the idea started, but we used to do that when I was in my early 20s. Twice the cops stopped the sober rider before they cottoned on to what was happening. :innocent:

A true story from Mount Eden in
Auckland.
Recently a routine Police patrol car parked outside a local
neighbourhood pub.
Late in the evening the officer noticed a man
leaving the bar so intoxicated that he could barely walk.
The man
stumbled around the car park for a few minutes, with the officer quietly
observing.
After what seemed an eternity and
trying his keys on five vehicles. The man managed to find his car,
which he fell into. He was
there for a few minutes as a number of other patrons left the bar and
drove off.
Finally he started the car, switched
the wipers on and off (it was a fine dry night). Then flicked the
indicators
on, then off, tooted the horn
and then switched on the lights.
He moved the vehicle forward a few
cm, reversed a little and then remained stationary for a few more minutes
as some more vehicles left. At last he
pulled out of the car park and started to drive slowly down the
road.
The police officer, having patiently
waited all this time, now started up the patrol car, put on the flashing
lights,
promptly pulled the man over and
carried out a random breathalyser test.
To his amazement the
breathalyser indicated no evidence of the man's intoxication.
The
police officer said "I'll have to ask you to accompany me to the police
station - this breathalyser equipment
must be broken."
"I doubt it bro," said the man,
"tonight I'm the designated decoy ".

No, we did it slightly differently. The sober decoy would leave the pub first, stumble around a bit while putting on his helmet etc, then hop on his bike, start it up and away almost immediatly at a good turn of speed (but just legal) in the opposite direct to what the cop was facing. By the time the cop stopped him the rest of us who would be already wearing our gear would be on our bikes and away.
The sober decoy would never admit to being a decoy as that would just ensure that it wouldn't work a second time.
For us it did work a second time, but not the third. However the cop still only caught 1 out 8 of us.
