That explains a lot here, too.

It seems that drivers today can’t figure out what “set” button on the steering wheel means.

Girls were skinnier

Hell eye ten wasn’t complete from Pensacola to lake city then

You had to take 98 a lot

I remember Jackson Miss my actual home it was 98 from Hattiesburg to destin which only had the holiday inn

You went to fort Walton to eat

Sand Flea

And Staffs

You went to PCB for the rides and clubs

And Hunts oyster bar

Which is still open and good

No 30A much then

One late winter night I was returning home from a long driving trip visiting family. My wife and daughter were asleep in the car and I was battling fatigue as we were getting closer to home. I got pulled over for somewhat erratic driving and was only quizzed about driving under the influence. After the officer looked in the car and seeing my family he cautioned me to take care and let me go. Needless to say between the shock of getting pulled over and the freezing night air, I was as awake and as alert as you could possibly be for the remainder of the way home.

Are you justifying your bad behavior?

Why not start at the very beginning? It’s illegal

As the old joke says:

A drunk driver will blow right through a stop sign, while a stoned driver will wait for the stop sign to turn green.

I feel like that is a government-sponsored myth.

It’s a JOKE, dude. But it does come from a grain of truth. I can attest from personal experience that alcohol impairs your judgement, which, with regards to driving, will influence speed and recklessness as well as reaction time, while marijuana will leave your coordination and reaction time intact, but affects how your brain processes information. So, you could stop at three intersections in a row with traffic lights, and reach the fourth that has a stop sign, and just sit there because your brain is waiting for something to change to indicate that it is time to go.
