With 2.5 per thousand alcohol in their blood, two men near Regensburg tried to push their broken-down car off the autobahn.
According to the police on Sunday, the two had probably celebrated the New Year a little too much: after their car on the A3 gave up the ghost on Saturday evening because the tank was empty, they just wanted to push it off the autobahn.
When they arrived, the police found both men to be around two and a half per thousand.
When the two accused each other of being a driver, their blood was also drawn.
Neither of them could show a driver's license.
