And apparently the NJ courts agree...
"A judge ruled the four-ton ice rink-grooming machines aren't motor vehicles because they aren't useable on highways and can't carry passengers. Zamboni operator John Peragallo had been charged with drunken driving in 2005 after a fellow employee at the Mennen Sports Arena in Morristown told police the machine was speeding and nearly crashed into the boards."
Does that absolve the Zamboni drivers in Idaho who took theirs for a late-night Burger King run?? IT SHOULD! But that's not the best part of the story....
"Peragallo, 64, testified at his trial that he did drink beer and vodka, but not until after he had groomed the ice. However, he told police he had a shot of Sambuca with his breakfast coffee and two Valium-pills before work."
Zamboni drivers on Valium = awesome.
