Knew a guy that was in a similar situation. He was at his buddies, drinking, and planned on spending the night. I forget the exact emergency (not labor, but I remember if was something legit), but his wife called and he drove home. Got pulled over as he was turning into his sub. Judge didn't care, and because he had a prior the judge sent him to jail (a really old one for something that was not exactly drunk driving...an old slap on the wrist thing before the huge DD crackdown). Most judges don't care about emergencies.
Oh yeah, the judge also read him the riot act for being out drinking at a friends when he was married and should have been at home, even though his wife was totally cool about it. Guess the gender of the judge.
