You've definitely got a point there. Not so sure on the "4 hours", but yes, alcohol level does go up for some time after the last drink.

so the trick is to smash out your drinks and then drive home within 3 hours?

AFAIK it's about 20 mins, then it starts to go down as your body metabolises about one standard drink per hour.

What exactly is the issue with hijack mode?

Opening driver's door or taking off driver's seatbelt 99% of the time result in switching the engine off...

Only issue I've ever had with it was being lazy and not wanting to turn the car off while I jumped out for something.

Hi-Jack requires both seatbelt AND door (well for me anyway). If you are really desperate to leave your car running whilst you are out of it (ie to leave the air con on for the Mrs whilst you get cash from an ATM), turn off the car, take your seatbelt off, and re start the car straight away. You wont have to enter PIN and will be able to jump out and back in.

Or....take your selt belt off, plug it back in behind your back and then open door to get out. Too much fucking around though....
