Man arrested for DUI No. 7
A man accused of making an illegal U-turn in front of a Billings police officer was arrested for drunken driving.
Thomas David Herman, 41, was arraigned in District Court today and pleaded not guilty to what prosecutors said is his seventh DUI offense. Herman, who appeared by video from the county jail, also pleaded not guilty to a mis-demeanor charge of making an illegal U-turn.
Judge Susan Watters set bond at $50,000 after Chief Deputy County Attorney Mark Murphy described Herman's traffic record as "truly amazing" for a man his age. Herman has previous DUI convictions in 2001, 1999, 1998, 1993 and two in 1992.
According to court records, Herman was arrested Sunday after a police officer saw him make a U-turn across a double yellow line on Underpass Avenue. 
The officer said Herman did poorly on several field sobriety tests (Uh....yah...ya think !! ) and a breath test showed he had a blood-alcohol level of 0.167 percent, more than twice the legal limit.
Apparently this guy hasn't learned his lesson YET !! I want to know why is this guy still on the road ???
