O rwell, Ohio, police called the Ashtabu- la County Sheriff’s Office to help them corral a drunk driving suspect on May 14 — but it wasn’t your typical “reckless oper- ator,” WOIO-TV reported. Twenty-one-year-old Nathan Miller was charged with OVI — operating a vehicle while intoxicated — for driving his horse-drawn Amish buggy on the wrong side of Hague Road. Officers were able to get in front of the horse and buggy, but the rig didn’t stop; it turned out Miller was passed out in the driver’s seat. While deputies tried to get control of the horse, it crashed into a
patrol car.

The company surveyed 2,000 adults and discovered that 48% of women are em-
barrassed to talk about their menstrual periods and 77% have never brought it up in their households.
