Now here's a hard core drinker and one tough Dodge truck. The driver hit and sheared off the light post, and then kept driving about 2 miles to a bar, where he stopped for more beer! How impaired do you have to be to NOT notice that you are carrying a stop light? (I wonder if the light was green?) The truck was towed about 2.5 miles to the towing yard, with the light still pinched between the two tow hooks and the bumper bent around it. It took several good hard pulls with a backhoe to get the pole free.

Seems to be a little confusion on the details of this 'little mishap', such as where it happened. Here's a link to the Snopes.com forum with the conflicting stories: http://message.snopes.com/showthread.php?t=49771
