A bus driver in canton Lucerne has lost his licence after he drunkenly tried to do a three-point turn and got stuck.
The driver was operating a night service near Menziken when he missed a turning.
In an effort to get back on route, he tried to turn the bus around on a small road, but it half fell into a ditch.
When police arrived, they found him to be over the drink drive limit and took his licence away on the spot.
