"Here is the reading of your uncle's will(遺囑),"said the lawyer,"telling what is to be done with this money after his death.I must ask you to remember one point.Your uncle has said you must bring me a paper showing exactly what you did with his money,as soon as you have spent it."

The same punishment applies to failing to provide specimens(樣本) for breath,blood or urine tests without good excuse.
Drink driving is a criminal offence.Be a responsible,driver,think before you drink.For the safety of yourself and other road users,never drive after consuming alcohol.
