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.
Hopefully cherishing it.
Hopefully not driving, and not drinking, but really hope not both at once anymore
Yeah that's just the part where you pass out behind the wheel.
I agree with those lab results.
It should have made the controls more sensitive over time so at the end you're swerving back and forth
Or just increase your "drunk meter" by increasing the input lag. Then have someone walk out into a crosswalk or something.
I propose we take these ideas and build our own drunk driving game that gets gradually more impossible to play and with more risks the longer the run continues. Like Getting Over It With Bennett Foddy meets that DPKR Crazy Taxi clone.
Only if the driver is Johnny Fiveaces.
And/or increase the delay between the commands and the game.
Simply have the game swerve for you and you have to correct it.
They should end it by having another drunk driver come out of left field and crash into you instead
Or flashing red & blues in the rearview
Then the red and blue becomes the victory condition. We had to ban bars from having coin op breathelizers because folks were trying to get high scores.
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.
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.
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.
It should have just pulled you over after a certain length of time
Like the whole drunk driving thing in GTA4
GTA5 gives you 1 wanted star if you drive drunk.
Wait, it really stopped you after a certain amount of time? I didn't remember that...
Nah, I meant more that it was next to impossible to not get the cops on you when you drove drunk. Even if you somehow managed to drive reasonably well (which was stupid hard), getting anywhere within a block of a cop set them on you.
Ah, yes. Using an obvious lie to prove your point. This only works, of course, when you have some authority over the people you are trying to convince.
Sounds fair to me
Ahhhh, it is some Kobayashi Maru type of setting!
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.
