Seattle Police Lt. in DUI Court

According to Examiner.com, a Seattle Police Lieutenant has entered a plea of not-guilty to DUI. He is not the first Seattle Police officer to face legal problems, and certainly won't be the last. But whenever a police officer gets a DUI, to me it begs the question of how? Police officers always make it sound like it should be so obvious that somebody is impaired. Well, if the officer can't even make a good decision as to himself, how is he fit to judge others?

Seattle police Lt. pleads not guilty to DUI - Examiner.com: "SEATTLE (Map, News) - Seattle police Lt. Donnie Lowe pleaded not guilty Monday to a drunken driving charge in King County District Court in Redmond. He was cited by a state trooper Nov. 23 on Interstate 5 and registered 0.11 on a blood-alcohol test. The Seattle Times says despite the arrest Lowe supervised a 42-member Seattle police detail sent to Washington, D.C., to assist in security for the Jan. 20 inauguration of President Barack Obama. Lowe works in the department's Homeland Security Bureau, planning for special events and disaster management."
