mh, driving, ""Educational Videos" 

So like, I let my driver's license expire, stupid of me I know. But Texas license renewal requires viewing an hour of.... okay some "scared straight" garbage.

Join me on this journey. I can't be the only one to suffer. The production quality of this.... is... magical.

Also some like really REALLY specific examples that feel very.... choice.

""Driving Educational Videos"" 

17 minutes. First Video.

Did you know, distracted driving is BAD?
And you shouldn't do it?
OH MY GODS I NEVER WOULD HAVE GUESSED THANK YOU.

Also did you know texas cops have to deal with --VIOLENT GANGS--- and do ----DRUG RAIDS---- and this matters to you because the cops who do those are totes the ones pulling you over and that's okay and correct and the way it should work?

Nice propaganda piece there, friends.

So what's the next 10 minutes of the video?

""Driving Educational Videos"" (pt2 for sake of keeping track) 

oh... oh no.

He's a white boy.
He's a quarterback.
Interviews with his mom, girlfriend, dad, and friends.

You guessed it, texting and driving. hit by a truck.

Now this is just me. But this will be the first time in many I'll say maybe these fucks should have hired an actual editor for this. Because man this video could have been punchy at like 5 minutes, not 17.

TL;DR:
Canned lines about don't drive distracted.

Oh... oh no there's a questionaire to make sure I was paying attention.

Cool, nah, glancing down for 1 second driving 65 makes you go 100feet, not 50, good try to catch me ther-

"Where does AJ’s dad find AJ’s phone?" Oh. Oh you wanted me to be paying attention to the crying man about his dead fucking son and how much blood there was?

Behind the dashboard motherfucker but wow, that's FUCKED UP OF YOU TEXAS.
