True story reported by an English guy who was stopped and asked to give a breathaliser test.
The English guy lives near Le Bugue in the Dordogne and at the
time he was stopped he was as pis*ed as a fart...
The gendarme signals to him to wind down the window then asks him if he has been drinking, and with a slurring speech the English guy replies; 'Yes, this morning I was at my (hic)..daughter's wedding, and as I don't like church much I went to the cafe opposite and had several beers.'
'Then during the wedding banquet I seem to remember downing three great bottles of wine; (hic)... a corbieres, a Minervois and (hic)...a Faugeres.'
'Then to finish off during the celebrations.... and (hic) during the evening ...me and my mate downed two bottles of Johnny Walker's black label.'
Getting impatient the gendarme warns him; 'Do you understand I'm a policeman and have stopped you for an alcohol test'?

The Englishman with a grin on his face replies; 'Do you understand
that I'm English, just like my car, and that my wife is sitting in the other
seat, at the steering wheel?'

Since having a designated driver for yourself after you drank is a felony, or walking down the sidewalk after you drank is a felony, then maybe there should be a law that mandates bars are to have sleeping quarters for everyone as to step outside the door of a bar is a felony!
Maybe Prohibition should come about again just like the banning of guns!
