This drunk driver stops at the green light

A drunk Kuwait driver who saw a police patrol stationed near a traffic signal apparently wanted to show them how normal he was when he suddenly stopped his car. He was so drunk that he could not realise such an act would backfire.

“A policeman rushed towards the car and asked the driver why he stopped…the man retorted ‘can’t you see the red light,” Alwatan newspaper said.

"The policeman immediately realized the man was not normal because the signal was green……so he ordered him to step out of the vehicle…when he came close to the man, he could smell alcohol…the driver was arrested and taken to the police centre.”

A well dressed gentlemen enters the bar of a five star restaurant, sits at the bar and orders four very expensive drinks. The bartender serves them on a silver tray, setting all four in front of the patron. The man then consumes all four drinks in a matter of seconds. The bartender comments, “Wow, you sure must have a problem.” “If you had what I had,” the man replies, “you’d drink them fast, too.” Leaning over, the sympathetic bartender asks, “What do you have?” “Fifty cents,” the man answers

stopping on the green is traffic flow obstruction (1.500 QR). but that's the last thing for him to worry about now!

If you're going to drink and drive... make yourself a traffic light rules reminder cheat sheet on your dashboard.
