You could be drunk on a horse that knows its way home and still get one.

I dont get how they skirt DUI laws. Where I’m from, you can get a DUI on any mode of transportation including bicycles and kayaks.

My home or the horse’s home?

If you’re riding a horse “home” and it’s a different home than your home you have the wrong horse.

Thanks. You may have just saved my night.

Yes.

You have interesting laws if that’s the case. My place specifically mentions motor vehicles, so even bicycles, which can be considered ‘traffic,’ won’t get you a case.

Here in the UK, a friend of mine got stopped for pushing his motorbike home from the pub because he felt he was too drunk to safely ride it. Rather than recognising he was doing the right thing by walking and not riding, they hit him with drunk in charge and he got points on his licence. Just a reminder that ACAB.

That’s evil man. Is personally just have left it there.
I’m in the UK and every winter ride the 5 miles on footpaths to my local town for our Christmas do. I know I could get pulled over but feel the chances are so low ill do it anyway

In college I got chunked in the drunk tank for riding my bike buzzed. Did the roadside aerobics perfectly, they cuffed me when I did the alphabet backwards and mixed up M and N. No shit.

I can’t do that shit sober.
rc__buggy@sh.itjust.works 3 weeks ago
Why, I never! Who, and I say WHO would every operate a kayak after drinking?!
I’m appalled you would even make such an accusation.
shalafi@lemmy.world 3 weeks ago
I say I say BOY! How dare you tarnish my FINE reputation with such slander!
(Um, I not certain I’ve ever operated a kayak sober, at least later in the day. Which is why my wife drives home.)

I used to do it mainly California Sober, but a couple times Oregon Sober was fuuuuuuun!

Roller skating and bikes too.

Kayak? I’m really having trouble imagining how that works. Is that still normal police giving out the DUI or some kind of water police along a beach? Could you explain some more to put my imagination at ease?

Sheriffs patrol the popular waterways around here in boats.

My city is very well known for the imbalance of the application of law. One part of town is assumed innocent until proven guilty and the other side is considered guilty by how you look.

I’d do it then. Ruin the benefit they have. (obviously easier said than done)
