Australian Man Arrested for Drunk Driving While Riding A Bicycle
If you are wondering, yes you can be prosecuted for drunk driving in Australia while riding a bicycle:
A far north Queensland man has been charged with drink driving after registering more than six times the legal limit while riding his bicycle.
Police say the man was riding along the Bruce Highway at Tully on Saturday night when he fell into a ditch.
He recorded a blood alcohol content of 0.28 and is due to appear in the Tully Magistrates Court at the end of the month. [ABC News]
I would much rather have someone riding a bicycle then driving a car because he is only a danger to himself.

A fine for dangerous riding maybe but should never affect your drivers licence.
