Well thankfully nobody was hurt from this and hopefully he learns a lesson from this, don't drink and drive you doughtnut.
I'll just say the same thing here that I said in the Star Trek Movies XI+ thread on this:
Assuming this is all true, all I can say is, don't drink and drive.
You don't have to do it, Mr. Pine, you've got no excuse. I hope you get all the help you need, and I'm looking forward to seeing you in the next Star Trek film.

This should be a lesson that, whether you feel drunk or not, you may well be intoxicated, or at least have a high enough BAC to fail a breath test. For crying out loud, they had designated drivers present. He should have made use of one.
The dude is wealthy. Should have used a limo service!
Yes, it's surprising how little it takes to put you over the limit.
One of my most terrifying moments was driving home on the interstate after a Friday night at the bar with co-workers. I had trouble focusing on the road, seeing double lines, the whole bit, but at least I was able to keep within the speed limit and stay in my lane. It was a very long and scary 20 miles. That was around 1985, and I never let myself get that drunk again.
This. It's tiring reading about rich celebrities who are too stupid to hire a driver.
... you mean like Justin Bieber?
(I think I died a little inside just typing his name)
When I was barely drinking age, and rarely drank, I went out with a friend after work and had two drinks. Didn't feel drunk, just a bit buzzed, but I had a helluva time staying in my lane going home.
Never again. Impairment sets in quickly.
Pine was a dumbass. The pub in question had a service to ferry tipsy patrons home/to their hotel/whatever.
A dumbass, indeed. I wish my pub had this service!! It's bloody brilliant.
Pine has just pleaded guilty:

Six months disqualified driving and $93 to pay.
Geez, I had a bigger fine when I foolishly tried to run a yellow light.

Yeah, that's a pretty light fine. I've had bigger speeding tickets.
