One of the subtly weirder conversations I’ve ever had was when someone was whinging about their home country’s dumb driving laws. Curious I enquired further until it became clear they thought everyone should be able to get at least a little tipsy while driving because what else were you supposed to do on the long commute home from work.
Never hated cars and car people more than in that moment. What was weird was I never would have been able to tell that that person held those views.
It is illuminating that the problem isn’t actually wanting to drink whilst driving, but just to pass the time faster when commuting home. The problem is how Americans have designed their cities, not drinking.
Edit: People, not Americans. Freudian slip.
