The Green Cross Code

You can also be pissed as a fart and drive in Barbados ;o))

and I also remember a mate of my brother in laws getting done in Poland whilst pushing a bike when he was drunk, he lost his driving licence for that one

Yep, that's what I'm talking about :-/ That's why it was worth to have the cyclist card, so they don't take away your driving licence.
My mum used to be on one of those community courts and poor dumb alcoholic farmers were fined for drunken cycling on a daily basis.
