DISCLAIMER (Of course, I'd have one 😁)
Hey, you might think that this info makes me your lawyer, but it doesn’t and I’m not. Sorry, but I AM NOT YOUR LAWYER unless we have an engagement agreement. I am just providing public information here, like a library does, and am not providing you with legal advice about your situation. So, it would be totally unreasonable for you to conclude we have an attorney-client relationship just because you're viewing this information.

The fact that in some state its illegal to sleep in your car is insane to me, they really do criminalizing being homeless-

[christophercombs]

The DMV specifically says if you are tired at all you are supposed to pull over, park, and sleep

Nowhere should it be illegal to sleep in your car, not only does it ruin campers it encourages drink driving while simultaneously punishing homelessness.

[Moffenson]

Not being able to sleep in a stationary car should be illegal. Drunk or not, getting an hour shut-eye while on the road can literally save lives.
*Edit - Sleeping in your car should not be illegal. It should be legal. No matter what condition you are in, sober or not. Put keys away and sleep in the back or something.
Since some of you didn't quite like the way I worded my words.

I had a couple of nights in LA when I went out clubbing and had too much to drink. I slept it off in my ride. Back then (the 90s), the rule was if your keys were not in the ignition then no DUI. One time, the cop even checked up on me before his shift ended and thanked me for doing the right thing and not being a danger to myself and others.

I think it is absolutely ridiculous that you can get charged with DRIVING WHILE INFLUENCED when you aren't even DRIVING....

[BinaryCounter]

In Germany it's even encouraged to do that. There's a specific law that allows you to sleep in your car anywhere for the purposes of "restoring the ability to drive if you're unfit". So you can't camp, but yes, sleeping off the booze or pulling over because you're too tired is totally legal.

I agree, sleeping in your car should never be illegal, it's a safe alternative. It's important to prioritize safety over anything else.

The fact that any state tells you that you can't sleep in a vehicle you own.

[qdaniele]

As a european this confuses me on multiple levels.
If I'll ever go to the US I'll probably end up arrested/fined first day for doing the most random thing that I could have never ever guessed was illegal in that particular state and/or county.

[makstrabka]

I love how you can be charged with something you are literally not doing

[benn]

Legal loophole: dont carry open booze in you car.

This guys good.

"cant sleep in your car"
"cant drive drunk"
"cant walk drunk"
"cabs and ubers, etc, dont take anymore drunks"
"you know what, prohibition is back in town!"

Went through this once. Slept in the passenger seat and hid my keys under the gas cap. Got a window knock from a cop round 3am asking why I was sleeping alone in the passenger seat. Told him I was too drunk to drive and he asked where my keys were, told him gas cap and he could check if he wanted. Cop said "alright I'm on patrol round here and if I see you driving before 8am I will be arresting you. Have a good sleep." 😅

I like how even if you try being responsible and not driving after getting drunk, the law still comes down full force, even if it realistically isn't even being broken.
