    Modern cars are super safe though. You’re basically strapped into a safety cage.

    Fun fact: IRC if you’re drunk it’s safer to drive home than walk home. (Not so safe for other people, obviously).

      I think “safer” is not the best word.

      Per mile, walking drunk might possibly be more likely to result in death than driving drunk. Per mile. Per trip, I’d bet walking is safer.

      But sleeping it off in your car is probably safer per instance than either.
