Drunk Driving...THIS is absolutely brilliant ! Only anAussie could pull this one off !
A true story from Mount Isa in Queensland (allegedly)

Recently a routine Police patrol car parked outside a local neighbourhood pub late in the evening. The officer noticed a man (Luke Sandery) leaving the bar so intoxicated that he could barely walk.

The man stumbled around the car park for a few minutes, with the officer quietly observing. After what seemed an eternity and trying his keys on five vehicles. The man managed to find his car, which he fell into. He was there for a few minutes as a number of other patrons left the bar and drove off. Finally he started the car, switched the wipers on and off (it was a fine dry night). Then flicked the indicators on, then off, tooted the horn and then switched on the lights.

He moved the vehicle forward a few metres, reversed a little and then remained stationary for a few more minutes as some more vehicles left. At last he pulled out of the car park and started to drive slowly down the road. The Police officer, having patiently waited all this time, now started up the patrol car, put on the flashing lights, promptly pulled the man over and carried out a random breathalyser test.

To his amazement the breathalyser indicated no evidence of the man's intoxication.

The Police officer said "I'll have to ask you to accompany me to the Police station - this breathalyzer equipment must be broken."

"I doubt it," said the man, "tonight I'm the designated decoy".

Reminds me of something that happened to me many years ago. We had been celebrating finishing exams until the early hours, when someone decided that we should go for a drive to the seaside to watch the sunrise. This was after 18 hours plus of drinking, so that we had almost drunk ourselves sober.

We were driving through Dublin city centre, with my friend at the wheel. Suddenly, as we passed the Dail (Parliament), we saw flashing blue lights behind us. When the Garda (cop) came to the window, he was quite polite and asked how fast the driver thought he was going. "Eh, 20 mph?". Garda: "No. Try again". "30 mph?". "No, try again". "Mmm, 40 mph?". "No. 6 mph. You were going 6 mph. Get out of the car please".
