Same here, but the car was running. In park but running.

It's stupid. You are pretty much saying, go ahead and drive because if you sleep in your car you will be arrested for that. Better take your chances getting home, than staying in your car.

  - "either operating it or have the ability to operate it in short fashion" that's a person drinking in a bar with car keys in their pocket. -- nm - Redmond Jan 21, 18:35 4

      - "close proximity" that is very subjective. -- nm - Redmond Jan 21, 18:43 2

- I think in the case stated it was because he was in the driver's seat. - the liioulu with a spa in a bottle Jan 21, 18:32
Just don't sleep in the driver's seat. -- nm - the liioulu with a spa in a bottle Jan 21, 18:30
I've heard of people sleeping in cars *in the passenger seat* with the car running in wintertime and getting DUIs. - amanchester Jan 21, 18:30 18

  - Hey the law is saying you have a better chance trying to drive home. -- nm - Redmond Jan 21, 18:32 15
    - Assuming your sole criteria for whether you should drive drunk is whether you will get busted for a DUI. nm - ralph wiggum Jan 21, 18:47 3
      - I was just taking the person that is drunk at the bar, the bar closes and they either sleep in the car or drive home. - Redmond Jan 21, 18:49 2
        
        You want to drive drunk! Admit it! ADMIT IT! nm - ralph wiggum Jan 21, 19:03 1
        
        Okay!!! You got me!! - Redmond Jan 21, 19:05
    - somehow I don't think that would get you off. -- nm - loosilu Jan 21, 18:38 9
      - No I am saying, spend 8 hours in a car or spend 30 minutes driving home. You have less a chance of getting arrested being in the car 7.5 hours less. - Redmond Jan 21, 18:42 6
        
        except your chances of getting into an accident (thus getting bagged) are 100% higher. -- nm - loosilu Jan 21, 18:43 5
        
        (thus getting banged) *starts drinking* -- nm - What Redmond saw Jan 21, 18:46 4
        
        silly, you need to give the booze to the women you hope to bang. -- nm - loosilu Jan 21, 18:47 3
        
        And that leads to a whole new set of legal issues. -- nm - the liioulu with a spa in a bottle Jan 21, 18:49 2
        
        *drooling* aaaaahhhhgghaaagh means no -- nm - Redmond Jan 21, 18:51 1
        
        it might just mean you opened your trenchcoat. -- nm - loosilu Jan 21, 18:58
      - *everything* gets him off. -- nm - Reagen Jan 21, 18:40 1
        
        This post just.............aaaaaaaaah -- nm - Redmond Jan 21, 18:43
    - Yeah, I want to see that used in the court case. ;) -- nm - the liioulu with a spa in a bottle Jan 21, 18:33
ok, if it's running, you deserve to be thrown in the can. -- nm - loosilu Jan 21, 18:27
