Nissan is developing a prototype vehicle that will not even start if the vehicle is intoxicated.  Watch out Paris Hilton & Mel Gibson!

This Japanese car will feature a straw-like tube next to the driver’s seat which the driver will have to blow before starting the car. 

A Nissan spokesperson added, “Nissan is also studying a device that requires drivers to enter personal identification numbers of many digits, which may be a difficult task if they are drunk.”

What if I’m drunk but smart?

Well, add this to the ongoing list of anti-drunk devices, remember the No More Drunk Calls Cell Phone?  That’s still my favorite.
