What do the police need to do to prove someone who is walking home is drunk?
For a driver, the police have all kinds of tests and checks to determine whether the driver is under the influence of booze. But, it seems that a cop can just see someone "staggering" home, and throw him or her in the slammer. Is that true, or do the police need to adminster the same tests to a pedestrian as a driver before locking the drunk up?

Cops do what they want - but most are too busy to be bothered with the paperwork. So if you're in your neighborhood, and no one is gonna mug you, they'll let you go...
