According to police sources, Robbie Knievel drove his motorhome around the Bufallo Chip premises while highly intoxicated on booze. With a 2.2 BAC, Robbie Knievel lost control of his RV and crashed into two other vehicles.

When police showed up, Robbie did not resist apprehension, later pleading guilty. Interviewed by TMZ. He admitted he was drunk and he also mentioned again that he pleaded guilty. Asked about his opinion on mixing booze and driving, he admitted things are a bit iffy, especially in the perspective of hurting innocent people while at it.

However, he stressed out the fact that he always was a cowboy and he liked whiskey: "I am no redneck, but I just like whiskey. I'm a cowboy, I drink and I ride motorcycles, that's it," added he.

Not exactly the best way to live up to his father's memory, but as long as nobody gets hurt, we'll just have to deal with it. Check out the entire TMZ interview.
