Early last Thursday morning, a man was driving down an expressway in Xuzhou, Jiangsu province when he saw police stopping cars ahead of him for a sobriety test.

Apparently hoping to avoid getting into trouble with the law, the man abandoned his van on the side of an exit, dashed across the highway, and hopped over the median, attempting to find a way out of this predicament.

After failing to catch a cab, the man decided that the only thing to do was to jump down from the overpass.

And that?s where police found him, with a broken leg. The man explained to one officer that he had been drinking the night before and was worried that the alcohol would register in the test. However, at the hospital, he was found to have a BAC of zero.

Poor guy. I'm glad that he didn't die. China's drug laws in general are downright depressing.

Edit: Their experience apropos the Opium Wars certainly didn't aid the nation in its ratification of a draconian controlled substances act.
