My dearly departed brother (1972, auto accident) used to like to say that
you didn't have to be able to stand up to drive, because you do it sitting
down.  He also avoided a DWI once by downing the remainder of a pint of
brandy as the police arrived at the scene of one of his accidents.  I don't
drink at all when I'm driving, or any other time for that matter.
