Seriously... why is it illegal to be drunk while "driving" a wheelchair, skateboard, etc? Who are you going to hurt? In my view, if the only possible serious victim of your stupidity is yourself, then there's no point in having a law against whatever the activity is.

Really. If the worst that can happen while you're drunk on a skateboard is you fall into traffic and get killed by a car.. who cares?

Having cops enFORCE this kind of stupid lawmaking is ludicrous. It's for this reason that they don't bother investigating real crime. When was the last time a cop investigated a stolen car stereo, parking lot vandalism, or a mugging?

Ya, none of those result in revenue for the department, so they aren't interested. Writing tickets and bolstering arrest numbers by going after victimless crimes is where it's at nowdays.
