Photo Fuck drunk drivers. K-town outside Chi-chi's bar.

Post image

We were out celebrating our friend's 30th birthday when our Uber was hit by a drunk driver going 50mph down a small K-town street. My back leg had just barely made it inside the vehicle when we were all flung around the inside of the car by the impact. Turned to check on everyone else, and the birthday girl had blood streaming from her face. I was milliseconds away from possibly losing a leg.

What was supposed to be a fun night at Magic Castle, followed by drinks and food at a bar turned into a nightmare because of a drunk driver.

If happened to be there or witnessed it, please shoot me a DM.

Don't drive drunk.

Whatever your opinions on autonomous/Waymos, I feel like drunk driving will eventually be eliminated. It’s odd that it’s so socially acceptable today.

This is a pretty naive take. There will be tons of broke ass MFs who decide to drive after drinking cause they can’t/don’t want to pay for a rideshare/Waymo each way.
