The idea of giving an on the spot driving test to anyone who seems to
be acting incapable of driving is a good one.  The only problem
is that SOME officers who give the test will deliberately and automatically
flunk anyone they don't like, and there's no appeal, the way you'
ve described the idea.

The problem is that "unsafe operation" must be completely determined by
the officer who's giving the ticket.   


The potential for abuse and discrimination is unbelievable.  
That's unfortunate.
