    Not sure if it's the same in NY, but in my state, you can still get arrested for DUI, sitting in your car. Vehicle doesn't have to be on and keys don't even need to be in ignition.

    The law here is the keys have to be in the ignition. Someone I went to high school with got busted when he passed out in his car because he knew he couldn't drive. He was in the back seat, but had the keys in the ignition. Pretty shitty, if you ask me.

    That's stupid if they're using that logic. It really shouldn't matter if you were drunk or not before operating a car. Fact is, you're not operating it at that second. Who's to say you weren't put into a parked car? Too many variables with that. I can't believe something like that is in legislation.

    Shrugs (Oh well…) That's VA for ya. Home of the dumbest laws ever thought of by some fool in power.
