Brazilian translation studios butchered this one too. It became Se Beber, Não Case (If Drinking, Don't Marry).

In the meantime the ones in Portugal translated it literally as A Ressaca, showing that the "creativity" of the above was 100% unnecessary.

Ok, but don't you prefer the brazilian name? I sure do, specially with the context of drinking and driving PSAs

I got the joke with "se beber não dirija", but it sounds shallow IMO.
