luck had nothing to do with it, or another way of putting it he was lucky in the same way as I was lucky, namely my parents taught me that there is a certain point you can push to and then it's time to go "yes Sir".
No matter how drunk I've got, I've always remembered "don't mess with the cops". A lot of my friends weren't so "lucky".
