That your son was arrested just because he was drunk and hailing a cab.. Whenever I go out to the bar with friends, they hotel staff subtly offer if they can get you a cab eventhough they know you have your own car. I think most people are encouraged to take a cab rather than to drunk drive on the streets of DOha. What are you saying does not make sense, you cannot drive when you drink and you cannot hail a cab when you are drunk which means what? Rent a room in the hotel and then go up and spend the night there since you can't go home drunk???
