Drink driving with a difference...

An Australian man has been banned from driving for 10 months after being caught on a scooter made of a motorised beer cooler.

Chris Petrie, 23, bought the scooter on the internet for $630 (£404).

He apparently decided to sample a few beers while assembling it before driving it home, according to a local television station.

Petrie told Australian news channel Network Ten: "By the time we built it, it was quite late so we thought we’d go for a bit of a test run."

He was pulled over by police and found to be more than three times over the legal blood alcohol limit.

Petrie was also charged with driving without a licence.

When asked in court if the cooler was fully loaded, Petrie informed the judge that the scooter was packed with canned rum and cokes.

10 months seems a little extreme for riding a cool box.

It's Australia - if they could reintroduce hanging for 50kmh in a 40 zone, they would.

True, but I doubt he'll be to bothered about the driving ban seeing as he has no license anyway.
