A man was arrested for drink-driving a lawn mower.

''He couldn't stand on his own. He was showing signs of impairment.''

Kenneth Welton, 53, from North Colorado in the United States became ''impaired'' following a heavy drinking session and decided to drive the grass trimming machine down a busy road, reports the Metro newspaper.

The man did not have a valid license and is currently being held in custody.

Sergeant Sean Standridge from the Weld County Sheriff's department said: ''He's lucky he didn't hurt somebody or get himself hurt from somebody hitting him.
