When I was probably about 6, I remember seeing ads on TV reminding people not to drink and drive. I didn't know what alcohol was so I thought this applied to drinking any liquids at all. So I was very shocked and worried when I went to the grocery store with my mom one day and she got herself a soda and opened it in the car while she was driving home! I thought my mom was going to get arrested for drinking and driving.
A childhood belief about cars
you weren't the only one
80 of you believed this
- I used to belive that it was Illeagal to drink ANY beverage while driving, not just alcohol.— Emma*
- I used to think that the dangers of drinking and driving included soda, juice, milk, or water.— Rick
- Don't drink and drive! Literally. I would fuss at the driver if they had so much as a coke in their hand.
