I woke up this morning and came across this article on gizmodo about a school who did a study about the effects of texting and driving using a wii.

I really do think this is a genius study. I have always wanted to do a study on my own about drinking and driving. I have always practiced safe drinking and driving techniques by never drinking and driving period. At the same time, my curiosity runs wild about how the effects of alcohol have on my driving skills personally. Let me clarify this curiosity I have. I have never had an yearning ever to get in a car after drinking to test out my curiosity.

Here is my proposition for said study. In the safety of my home, I will do a few rounds of playing a simulation driving game. I am thinking Forza 2. I will do a certain track and grab a best time for that track sans any alcohol in my blood system. Then I will have a drink and race a couple of times down the track and attempt to grab another time. I will increment my drinks and race down the track to grab times at each drink interval.

I may live ustream this event. I will keep everyone posted when I do this.

Just to clarify this post, I do not condone drinking and driving in any format. This experiment is done at the safety my home where the only people I injure are fake video game characters.
