You ever been hit by someone that was impaired? My leg still hurts 20 years later.

[Boundless]

Wait 'til they stop some politicians who can't pass
this test while sober.

[N. Theknow]

Reminds me of the Ray Stevens song:

Well, can he play the spoons
Make music with his armpits
Little animals from balloons
Can he whistle Dixie
While eating crackers
And covering one eye
Can he love you
Half as much as I?

Finally, the drivers will have to raise one foot and count out loud while keeping their eyes on the raised foot.

Go ahead and lock me up. I cannot stand on one foot nor can I walk a straight line. Haven't been able to since the labyrinthectomy that removed the gyroscope from the left side of my head.

Guess I might get lucky and win the lawsuit lottery if I fall and bust my pumpkin.

Yeah I will have to go to Jail too, I have to sit down now to put on my underwear.

LOL! You can practice for the "stupid human tricks" administered by police officers, you know. In fact, you can make a fun party game out of it.

Get all drunked-up, and have a friend administer the tests to you. Repeat until you can master the tasks, even when on a full-blown bender.

Or better yet, stay off the roads when you're buzzed. Hey! What a wonderful idea!

My walking is impaired by arthritis and the cops would expect me to stand on one foot? That hurts just thinking about it. Guess they could apply an age limit on these field tests.

Sucks, doesn't it?

[hellinahandcart]

Get out of the car.

Stretch out your arms and touch your nose with your finger.

Now walk this white line.

HALT! Come back.

On your hands!

One hand!

Now do a rollover, turnover and flip-flop!

Alright. Now juggle these, do a tap dance and sing the Catalina Magdalena Luptenschteiner Volunbeiner song!

[Emmett McCarthy]

Well, I don't HAVE to sit down to put on my underwear, but, what the hell, it's a lot easier. And, if you're in jail, and gotta choose between sitting down to put on your underwear or bending over to do it...

[BigSkyFreeper]

I have to sit down now to put on my underwear.

Don't feel bad. I've done that my whole life. Even taking shoes off, I sit on the floor because I can't balance myself on one foot and barely can stand on two.

[Larry Lucido]

Here's a video of the test in progress.

It's still not as bad as the Austrian drunk driving test.

It's still not as bad as the Austrian drunk driving test.

Do tell.

[Tennessee_Bob]

Damn - you beat me.
