In which country other then USA is it common to hide the he bottle in a paper bag? Never saw this in real life.
Its a leftover from legal loopholes that don't really exist most places anymore.
Open container laws allows DUIs for having an open alcohol container in the car, but if the label was hidden by the big paper bag police didn't have PC.
Now lots of states have an agreement to submit to breathalyzer tests as a condition of having a driver's license, so if they see the paper bag they'll ask you to blow in the tube or revoke your license on the spot.
My understanding of it is that the agreement to submit to a breathalyzer is essentually a contractual agreement with the state as part of the agreement to issue the license. It makes it a civil/administrative issue, meaning you don't have to be convicted of or even charged with a crime for them to revoke your license over refusing to blow.
I assume this is the US? FPD is something Police Department, and when the images are flipped properly, the driver is on the left side. Also only in the US are cats allowed to drive.
They're also allowed to drive in Lesotho.
That would be none.
