  • What happens when the Bottle Fairy, Lady Drunk, Life of the Party, Lampshade Wearer, Drunken Master, Doctor Jekyll and Mister Jack Daniels, et al. get behind the wheel of their car. Prior to The Eighties, this trope was often a source for comedy, even in a by-the-book Cop Show like Adam12 when the cops pull them over. However, a greater awareness of the deadly menace of motorists driving under the influence have now made it a source of An Aesop for a Very Special Episode. As a result, impaired drivers gonna hit someone and have a car accident, or be chased down by heroes and/or the police to prevent it. If it's a near miss, it's a Scare'Em Straight. Also happens after a non-boozehound character has been Drowning My Sorrows.
