I believe this is still a DUI even though the horse is smart enough to cause any trouble

[-] Holytimes@sh.itjust.works 29 points 1 month ago

It is and it isn't. If you are actively riding the horse and in control of the reigns then you are operating a means of transportation and thus can get a DUI.

On the flip side if your passed the fuck out and slung over the horse and the horse is dragging your drunk ass home. You can't get a DUI. You can get charged with other things tho.

It varies slightly depending where you are. But it's a rather silly problem that rarely comes up.

If I see a cop, immediately feign unconsciousness - got it!

Nah friend, they will give you a DUI if they want. Horse, bicycle, car, whatever. You can be doing the responsible thing and sleeping in your car and get DUI. I had a sober friend get pulled over running an orange light, searched his car, found his little metal bowl and charged him DUI. They administered a drug test which of course showed weed.

Slop of slop from slop!

[-] Iron_Lynx@lemmy.world 8 points 1 month ago

In my area (NL) riding a horse, or even walking beside it and guiding it, still classifies you as a driver, and thus you'd be on the hook for a DUI in this situation.

[-] MML@sh.itjust.works 4 points 1 month ago

Even if it isn't most places can't sell you alcohol if you are already drunk (but I think this is just supposed to be a funny image)

[-] Corkyskog@sh.itjust.works 3 points 1 month ago

In practice, this never seems to apply to a liqour store and only serving establishments. Mostly because the interaction/observation window is so short. If they could get their car into the parking lot without crashing into anything and if they could shuffle over to the booze and back to the register without falling over we would have to sell it to them... Especially if they don't talk during that process.

Horses are smarter than cars or bikes, faster than walking, and more available than public transportation in many places. I get his logic.

[-] Zwiebel@feddit.org 10 points 1 month ago

She asked why hes riding it into the store not to the store tho

Nowhere to hitch the horse outside maybe?

[-] Mesophar@pawb.social 5 points 1 month ago

Drives truck through display window

"Sorry, all the parking spots were full!"

a horse walks into a beerstore, the clerk says "why the long face?"

[-] PancakesCantKillMe@lemmy.world 14 points 1 month ago

“Because I’m an alcoholic and it’s killing my family,” he whinnied.

It's a genetic disposition due to the fact that I'm a horse.....

You really shouldn’t drink and horse, man

[-] ikidd@lemmy.dbzer0.com 8 points 1 month ago

I can't get my horse to get within a stone's throw of a truck that he's seen daily for 5 years but is apparently still the scariest thing on earth and will eat him.

If I tried to take him into a convenience store, he'd probably buck me off and drag me to death across the parking lot.

Only if my estate gets the video rights.

Idiot.

Cashier opens a plastic bag for the beer. Horse flips its shit and bucks him through the ceiling and kills itself crashing into every sharp thing in the store. Total legend only if he and the horse lived.

I'm joking, but that horse is clearly very not pleased to be in there.

[-] Holytimes@sh.itjust.works 17 points 1 month ago

Horses are never pleased. You arnt giving them enough treats.

They also are actively always trying to explode and implode at the same time and the effort to maintain both plodsions makes them grumpy.

Also the broom moved. WHY DID THE BROOM MOVE HAN?! THE WORLD IS ENDING AHHHHHHH!!!!

Yes, you're also supposed to press G to pet them, and press B to brush. It also increases their stamina

[-] ikidd@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 1 month ago

This guy horses.

Sounds just like my rabbits with their perpetual frowns. I guess horses and rabbits are more similar than I thought.

Best thing I've seen today! LOL

Hats off to this alcoholic*

FTFY

No matter how drunk you get, the horse always remembers the way home.
