Um, here’s one of the worst ideas of all time: get hammered drunk, drive under the influence, and tell everyone about it.
One Florida woman did just that with Periscope, the live video streaming app owned by Twitter that allows users to broadcast their activities to anywhere in the entire world.
Lakeland police say Whitney Beall is lucky to be alive after going on a drunk driving trip and broadcasting her adventure via Periscope.
At the outset of her broadcast, she showed herself drinking. She’s visibly intoxicated at this point.
Then Beall announced, “Hi, guys…I’m driving home drunk. Let’s see if I get a DUI. In the USA, people! Let’s see if I get a DUI. I don’t think I will. I really don’t, because I live on back roads.”
As she drove around Lakeland, Beall slurred, “I am f*cking drunk and this is horrible” and “Drunk driving is not cool.”
