    They should end it by having another drunk driver come out of left field and crash into you instead

    I mean tbf it’s right about when you think you’re really good at it that driving drunk ends up fucking you so… shockingly accurate?

      It’s like riding a motorcycle - it’s not IF you crash, it’s WHEN.

      I stopped hanging out with a girl I knew in college. She nearly crashed her car twice while drunk driving in her 20s, non-fatal, and constantly bragged about it. And not sure why she likes risking her life or of innocent people.

      No idea what she’s doing in her life now.

    lol… when I was in high school there was some sort of D.A.R.E. program, just named something else… they asked us to wear goggles that was supposed to simulate vision while high on marijuana. I burst into laughter and said, “this absolutely does NOT happen to your vision on marijuana.”

    The goggles had a haze-like film and some other sort of fractal film where each movement you made it was supposed to simulate hallucinations / flutter vision… the police officer who looked like he was maybe in his mid twenties had a grin on his face as I passed the goggles onto the next person.

    That was a point in my life when I realized… the authority we’re supposed to obey are just average dumb ass non-thinking humans… what we call today, NPCs.

    Drunk driving is absolutely safe, it’s just a ploy by the globalists to keep men from being manly and keep Trump out of office!!! All Trump fans should protest by loading their family into their cars and drunk drive around Pro-Trump neighbourhoods at breakneck speed.

      Or just increase your “drunk meter” by increasing the input lag. Then have someone walk out into a crosswalk or something.

    We did this in highschool but with a texting and driving simulator. You had to drive the car and not hit a ton of obstacles meanwhile texting back a specific message in response to incoming text messages. I played a shit ton of video games as a child so I was super good at this and never crashed. Made the gym teacher mad. I still understood the point of it though of course but I liked being able to beat the game.

    Actually I like how European/American Truck Simulator models tiredness. At some point you see some black out and the controls don’t respond for a few seconds. Good luck recovering from that depending on the driving situation.
