New Zealander Rex Morgan was served a harsh sentence by an Australian magistrate after calling him his "bro" during a courtroom argument.
Morgan appeared before Richard Pithouse in the Werribee Magistrates' Court after reversing 30 metres down the wrong side of the road and hitting his neighbour's fence before returning a positive reading on a preliminary breath alcohol test, reports the Herald Sun.
Instructed to accompany police to the station for further testing Morgan said: "Nah, I'm good bro" before telling officers to "just charge me bro, I don't care".
Appearing in court to face charges over the incident, Morgan again took a casual approach, telling the court: "I don't even know why I'm here, bro".
His stance landed him in hot water with the magistrate, who told the New Zealander to "drop the attitude".
