GEICO has been promoting issues that are directed at teens. they even have a video of what teens are doing in the car.
the driving of the golf cart, do those goggles come in .08, .1, .2, .3 visually impaired? during this event are they told also how alchohol is processed in your system. an event like this needs to see the complete picture – including a court case with the sentencing. you might want to include the costs associated with the event – like insurance, medical bills of both parties (victim and responsible party). sr22 and what it does for them.
I believe the shaking car is the result of the erratic maneuvers made by the driver that is using goggles to simulate the effect of alcohol on the driver’s judgment and response time.
And let’s face it, we can talk to our kids until we are blue in the face, but will they hear us? Some maybe, some no; most of the time they have to “see it to believe it”. How often do you hear us “adults” refer to the one (or more) time (s) we did drink and get behind the wheel and by some miracle didn’t wreck?(look at the comments already posted). So now age, wisdom and the experience of being Sh*t-faced behind the wheel makes us realize we were in no condition to be driving, thank the heavens nothing bad happened, and vow never to make that mistake again.
We may not be able to bestow age and wisdom on our teens, but maybe, just maybe the experience, even if simulated, will stop someone from getting behind the wheel and preventing something tragic from happening. I’m all for it.
