Drink_drive_lewis_hamilton
Formula One World Champion Lewis Hamilton took to the wheel in a London black cab to back an anti-drink-drive campaign.

Hamilton teamed up with double world champion Mika Hakkinen for the trip as part of the Johnnie Walker responsible drinking programme.

The two champions drove black cabs across London's Tower Bridge towards City Hall to join forces with professional drivers from Transport for London.

Hamilton said: "Whenever I go out with my friends I'm always happy to be the designated driver. That way I know everyone gets home safely."
