    It was late at night and the police were out checking for erratic driving. They spotted a car traveling alone along the dual carriageway and decided to follow it. The car never exceeded the speed limit, gave all the correct signals as it left the main road and when they reached the town it pulled up correctly at all the traffic lights. Eventually, the police car overtook the car and flagged it down. "Good evening, Sir," said the policeman. "We felt we had to stop you to congratulate you on your perfect driving skills." "Well, thank you, officer," replied the driver, "I always drive very carefully, especially when I’ve had a bit to drink."

      A drunk phoned the local police department to report that thieves had been in his car. “They have stolen the dashboard, the steering wheel, the brake pedal, even the accelerator,” he cried out. However, before the police investigation could start, the phone rang a second time, and the same voice came over the line. “Never mind,” the drunk said with a hiccup. “I got in the back seat by mistake.”

              The legal limit in Germany is only 0.05% compared to 0.08% in the US, Canada and the UK.

                  This was a favorite of Bob Hope[^]. I remember him telling it in the 1970's so it has been around for a while. :)

                    You can't have an open container in the vehicle while driving, even if it belongs to a passenger. However, if you drank before getting in, the limit is 0.08%
