<p>A US state has unwittingly started a legal debate with an advertising campaign urging drinkers to get a lift home.</p>
<p>Montana&#8217;s Department of Transportation issued a public safety video that features a horse picking up a rider at a bar.</p>
<p>It was intended as a metaphor to encourage drinkers to seek alternative transport.</p>
<p>But it is being taken literally by some in a state well known for its horse culture.</p>
<p>Helena Police Chief Troy McGee said he has received many calls from residents wanting to know if riding a horse while under the influence is legal.</p>
<p>Mr McGee told the Independent Record newspaper that it is.</p>
<p>Montana law carefully defines a vehicle, and excludes those running under animal power.</p>
<p>The popular 30-second video titled Sober Friend shows a savvy horse carefully obeying traffic laws on a night time journey through town before stopping in front of a bar to pick up a rider.</p>
