It's a shame that people in this country don't get more outraged by DUIs. It's so dangerous and so avoidable. I spent half my high school and all my college vacations drunk in Kailua and yet I never got stopped for DUI. Know why? I never drove home. And my friend's house was probably not as fancy as any Lost cast member's. And if they didn't want to do that, I bet both Rodriguez and Watros could have afforded the cab fare (or split it 
)
Still, if nothing else, this unfortunate incident did manage to spark the Best. Lost. Thread. EVER.

Rodriguez was on Howard Stern a couple of years ago, and she came off as a real asshole. I hope she played her little tough girl routine with the cops, and they tasered her ass.

This part is total speculation. My guess though is that when one of the girls got stopped, it took another officer to track down the other girl and that's why there's a time discrepancy. I got money that Rodriguez didn't stop for the first cop but got caught by a second cop.
By the way, I just found out that the chicken place that Hurley worked at is a Popeye's right in my neighborhood. And the convenience store that Hurley won the lottery at is right next door to that Popeye's. The LOST directors do a really good job not giving away that the flashback scenes are filmed in Hawaii.

Headline on the Honolulu Star-Bulletin today:
"Lost" actors have a hard time finding the brake
You know, I don't appreciate the fact that they're making my roads unsafe.

I can certainly understand the speeding issue. Having lived in Southern California and driving here is quite a bit different from driving in Hawaii.
The 65 speed limit in CA is certainly the minimum on an open highway and I've had CHP pass me by while I was doing 80mph. So to be used to that and moving to Hawaii where the speed MAXIMUM is 55mph takes a little getting used to.

Hell, I had a hard enough time when I moved away from WV where it's 55 on pretty much all 2 lane roads, 65 on the free ways and 70 on the Interstates to MD where they're all about 10MPH lower.

You just have to adapt and follow the posted maximum speed. That is not hard to do. When in
It would be nice if tourists are not allowed to drive here
. With just their short stay, they know what's best for the people that live here.
