Luck, or when you get drunk enough you can use earth's magnetic fields.

Luck, but I doubt this guy could have. Holy Ninja! Ho he managed to even resist arrest is beyond me. PROVIDENCE, R.I. — State police say they arrested a man early Tuesday whose blood alcohol level was 0.491 percent — the highest ever recorded in Rhode Island for someone who wasn't dead. Stanley Kobierowski was taken to a hospital, put in the detoxification unit and sedated. He was arraigned Tuesday on charges of driving while intoxicated and resisting arrest, and he was released after promising to appear Friday at a court hearing. "The person's lucky they survived," O'Donnell said. "There's no doubt he would have gotten killed or killed someone if he had continued on the route he was taking." A phone listing for Kobierowski could not be found, and he did not have a lawyer in court Tuesday. Kobierowski, 34, of North Providence, was arrested after he drove into a highway message board on Interstate 95 in Providence, O'Donnell said. After police arrived, Kobierowski had trouble getting out of the car, then grabbed it and refused to move, forcing troopers to carry him to the breakdown lane before taking him back to their barracks, O'Donnell said. A breath test showed blood alcohol readings of 0.489 percent, followed by 0.491, O'Donnell said, the highest readings state officials could remember for someone who didn't end up dead.

They have their friends to tell the taxi driver their address for them :P

They don't. A guy here was shot and killed a few weeks ago trying to break into someone's home. It turns out he was drunk and mistook another house for his own home. But he scared the homeowner out of his wits and died for it.

I think most out of habit of driving home so often it is hard to lose your way even while intoxicated. I have been drunk many times in my lifetime but never to the point where I did not know where I was or who I was. Always knew what I knew just didn't give a rats ass (so to speak). Drinking never made me stupid only behave as such.

If a person is too drunk to find their way home, he/she should not be operating a vehicle. If you mean by foot, as in you are walking distance, it's been my experience that no amount of alcohol has impaired my ability to go home... I think it's a habit thing. (The ability to get home, not the severe drunkness!)

they crawl

They don't. But their senses are not completely impaired. It's probably in their subconscious mind to know where they are.

They're probably still in their home, they just don't realise it.

(Back when I was still an active drunk!) I was always able to find my way home, even when I did not remember most of the night my car would always be in the driveway when I woke up! Not pride just sad fact...
