Timothy James McGowan of Mill Valley picked up three DUIs in three days in three cities, authorities say.
On May 18, McGowan, 50, tried to enter a closed bank and drove off while drunk in San Rafael, police say.
On May 19, he was arrested for drunken driving in San Francisco.
On May 20, he got busted in Novato after he was spotted staggering near his Volkswagen Beetle, asking a woman for a ride to Burger King and then getting into his car and making a wide right turn in front of police, authorities say.
A blood test showed that his blood-alcohol level in the Novato incident was more than 0.15 percent, nearly twice the legal limit of 0.08 percent, said Deputy District Attorney Kevin O'Hara.
On Friday, McGowan pleaded not guilty in the Marin County cases. He is being held in lieu of $50,000 bail. If convicted, McGowan could face two years in jail.
McGowan has previous convictions for DUI, petty theft, resisting arrest and drug possession. He was also arrested four times on suspicion of public intoxication in Mill Valley from January to April.

 
Cause the judicial system in the US when it comes against drunk drivers is so flawed its ridiculous..
 
Drunk drivers are murders..... They should locked up and forced to get clean and if released and if they get caught again thrown away for life...

Yes drunk drivers piss me off to no end, after being a victim of a drunk driver and not being the same since I have a hatred for them.....
 
Well yes you are right but the way I mean it is that murders they are almost always guilty and serve some sort of time.. where as drunk drivers just get fines and licenses suspended but that doesn't mean they quit driving. Heck unless they are in accidents or go through checkpoints, they rarely get caught.
 
Trust me I know from personal experience....

Lady who hit was 3 times over the legal and all she got was a fine, the immobilizer in both her and her husbands car and AA...
