...story of a car recklessly pursued by bloodthirsty photographers has been complicated by questions about whether the driver was drunk and speeding. Police lab tests performed after the accident show that Henri Paul had nearly four times the legal limit of alcohol in his blood, the equivalent of a bottle and a half of wine. Friends say Dodi would never have permitted reckless driving. The Fayeds are aggressively refuting the idea that Paul, the hotel's deputy chief of security, was too drunk to drive. If true, it would leave them with some responsibility for allowing him to take...

Benjamin Wynne, 20, underwent two of the most time-honored rites of passage at Louisiana State University last week. He received a pledge pin from the fraternity that voted him into the brotherhood, and he got rip-roaring drunk to celebrate.

But soon it wheeled on drunk-drivers, the British press and the Al-Fayeds before settling, finally and inexplicably, on the Royal Family ? as if the Queen herself had been at the wheel of that Mercedes. When Earl Spencer stood up at his sister's funeral and fired a volley of veiled threats at her former in-laws, the search for scapegoats was complete. So now the world has turned upside-down, perhaps we ought to listen to China's considered opinion on the whole Diana business: "this...
...Though he had received special security driving training from Mercedes-Benz, medical experts say that Paul could have been drunk enough to stagger and have blurred vision. At the moment of the crash, he had to contend with driving an unwieldy, armored Mercedes at speeds more than triple the posted 30 mph limit ? all the while being pursued by paparazzi on motor scooters. When the car entered the 660-ft. tunnel on the Place de l'Alma, investigators say, it struck the concrete divider that separates the eastbound lanes from the westbound and apparently cartwheeled, overturning, then spinning nearly...
