I went out with some friends last night and tied one on. I got really drunk. Knowing that I was wasted, I did something that I have never done before. I took the bus home.

I arrived safe and warm, which seemed really surprising as I have never driven one before.

some guys here have started this service you call them and two guys come to the bar one drives and one drives your car home all for $38 better then a free ride in a cop car.

Now you'll have one more thing to put on your resume. One eye Bus driver

Great choice. I don't drink & drive/ride anymore.
The other night I was out with the wife for dinner and had 4 quick drinks and I also did something I had never done before - handed her the car keys!
Ride safe guys.

Another little trick is calling a Tow company. They can take you and your car (or bike) home, and if you have AAA, it might just be free.

I was just glad he wasn't at a bar by a police station, he might would have tried to drive a cruiser home.

Tried that - ONCE

The bus thing is just a joke, folks! I have driven them often - and well. ESPECIALLY when drunk. And over my lifetime I have known a number of professional bus drivers (not me - I never got paid) in the city of Vancouver. They ALL drove bus - stoned most of the time, and occasionally drunk. Hell, the cops I knew were like that.

Life back then was a kinder, gentler age .... seems to be frowned upon nowadays.

My cousin is a paramedic and was called to a bar after a fight and an overly drunk patron thought it was a good plan to drive her ambulance home with all the lights going. Police had no problem fallowing him home.

Ride in the police car isn't free. They call that "the 8,000 ticket". There is a service where a guy comes to get you on a little folding moped. Puts it in your trunk and drives you home in your own car, than rides hes scooter back.
