    Saw a guy in italy almost ram a cop car atan intersection. I think the driver was running a red light, but could have been the cop running a red. Anyhow, the driver breaks just before the cop car, and the cop on the passanger side just gesticulates his discontent but they just keep rolling on anyway. They could not be bothered.

    Image from the funniest part of a movie that I won’t spoil because I was surprised and wish I could watch it again for the first time.

    Must have been in Europe. I’m America the cop woulda shot him. Also probably smelled the booze. Also as an American over never been drunk enough (not even when I had alcohol poisoning that one time) to think theat such legal consequences would be cheaper than a trip to the hospital.

    Fun fact, hospitals routinely do tox screens. OP isn’t just a bullshitter, he’s a bad bullshitter lol

      Or yaknow it doesn’t matter that he is shitfaced, he is having a medical emergency. In that case nobody would think “oh no he drank alcohol he should’ve walked to the hospital”.

      It seems to me that drunk driving is much more accepted in the US than in Europe.

        Having lived in both - often having a half pint of 4%. lager is enough to prevent people from driving, in the US having two pints of 7.5% IPA and smoking weed wouldn’t been seen as unusual before a 30 min drive home.

        It definitely is. Public transportation is basically never an option and Ubers are expensive so most Americans don’t even think about those options. Then there are other problems like Americans not forcing their friends to stay the night when drunk, not having dependable social circles, and a lot of rural folk thinking that no one will be on the roads anyways. It’s a mess is what it is, haven’t even been able to stop family from doing it.
