    Default Re: Sleeping is Not Driving

    good ruling!

    Hell, the guy might have even realized he was to drunk to drive and couldn't go anywhere so he just passed out in his car instead of getting behind the wheel.


    or he was just too drunk to lift the keys. ;P

    but yeah, speculation, glad it was thrown out.
