Seriously? It's not like Chris was falling all over. He was walkin' and talkin' straight, and was polite as all out. You might have thought that a policeman would have said, "OMGD. I've pulled over Captain Kirk!" and let Chris go on his merry way, but no.
Could this have something to do with the new "devil-may-dare" attitude of the newly-conceived Captain Kirk? The one that drinks and carouses? One might think twice, and realize the Kirk is an imagined character, and Chris is an actor. Nope. Maybe those New Zealanders are getting cranky about all the actors flooding their fair island.

Sure, the staff at the Blue Pub warned patrons about the possible DWI trap, and that cars had been arranged, but Chris left on his own. Pshaw, he'd only been drinking beer.

Oh well. Naturally it's all over the web now, and Chris has gotten his first demerit.
Doesn't this reek of watching our good Captain a little too closely? Jeepers, who was the one who leaked this one to the press, and how much did they earn from it?
Now, if he was traveling at light-speed with four blue-skinned women in the car, that would be a real story.
