Batman, a provisional driving licence-holder, was found to be over the drink-drive limit. Superman, who held a full driving licence, was also breath-tested and found to be the same. Both men have now been charged.
A source at Fife Police said: "This is a real fall from grace for two superheroes. I am sure drink driving is not allowed in Gotham City, and it is certainly not to allowed in Fife.
An official spokesman for Fife Police said: "We've all had a bit of laugh about Superman and Batman getting stopped.
"But there is a serious side to all of this. The driver of the car appears only to have had a provisional driving licence and has been charged with drink driving.
Fife Police said that despite a strong message being sent about using seatbelts, 87 adults were detected not using them, 74 of them were drivers.
There were four incidents where officers found children in the back of the car not wearing a seatbelt.
Chief Inspector Joe Swanston, head of Road Policing, said: "We are appealing to the public to help us crack down on drink drivers.
"We need people to tell us if someone who has just got behind a wheel after drinking or information on people that regularly drink and drive."
