CATHEDRAL CITY, Calif. (KABC) -- The California Highway Patrol shared a funny picture with a serious message on New Year's Eve: don't drink and drive!

The CHP posted a picture on Instagram, where they said a DUI suspect was involved in a hit-and-run and took off.

When he tried to lean over to a gate keypad, he fell out of his window, and his foot got stuck in the steering wheel.

Cathedral City police arrived and helped him out -- then took him to jail.
