A Welsh company is running an innovative service that provides an alternative to taxis. If you’ve gone to the pub in your car and then had too much to drink, rather than call a taxi and have to pick up the car the next day, simply call Scooterman.

A rider on board a 90cc, fold-up scooter will meet the customer at their car, put the scooter in the boot and drive them home

The service is marketed as cheaper than a two-way taxi journey, and is supported by brewer Budweiser. On average, 168 drunk drivers lose their licence every night.

There used to be such a service in NZ, 2 young guys had a fold up moped type thing - good on them!
