Not sure of the letter of the law regarding distance, but yes that's correct, to prevent a drunk driver getting the car back onto the drive, scooting inside his house and assuming he's got away with it.

Police have the right to enter the property in that example.

A question I asked in a similar thread was about the situation where a motor home parks up in a lay-by or public park for the night - obviously with keys on board - and has a few sherberts with his meal before going to bed. Presumably he is open to arrest by a bad tempered cop?
