An 18-year-old college student in New Zealand got arrested for drunk driving last year after his friends talked him into driving when he knew he shouldn't...

He's an aspiring musician, and wrote a song about how much he regrets it.  And his judge was so impressed, he dismissed the charges.

Even the prosecutor said they didn't want to pursue the case anymore.  The song is called "Choices," and he described it as a letter to himself.  Here's a clip.

Hey It’s Ryan, let me start off by saying…YES, I was born and raised in Wixom, Michigan although a lot of listeners like to joke that I am from Arizona. WCSX has always been my radio home, I have been at the station since I was a 23-year-old intern, co-host of Big Jim’s House, married with kids. Family and radio are what I love, but don’t get me started on golf! Like some, I have become obsessed with golf and you can hear all about that on “The Ball Washer Pod” right here on WCSX. One of my other passions is helping out the Vets. Since coming to WCSX I have been apart of raising hundreds of thousands for local vet groups. Other than that, I am a goofy guy, loving life, my family and talking to you on the radio. Ryan writes about golf, family and what happens on “Big Jim’s House.”
