    It’d be really funny if the driver was actually sober at the time, but was still using “self-drive”. Then, it just punches straight through the roundabout and road signs:

    “I swear officer, I only started drinking after the accident to settle my nerves and come to grips with the fact that my car just tried to kill me! (still love the truck though)”

      I personally know someone who used the “I didn’t start drinking until I got home!” thing successfully, and unless they get witnesses to this person being drunk before the accident, I fully expect it will work in this instance, too.
