Glad you learned your lesson and glad he's ok

I was 11 years old at the time this episode aired on March 1993. It was that story that led me to not drink beer or alcohol at all for a long time. It wasn't until I turned 30 that I began to drink some beer. Even today, I only drink one beer a week, mainly on Saturday nights. And it all traces back to the ramifications Brandon and his family had to go through because Brandon felt he was invincible on that March 1987 night (only to find out otherwise). Alcohol and keys do not mix.

Hardest part is having to tell the parents as his friend did. No one wants to tell or be given that news. The parents that allowed the party with teens drinking should be given jail terms for that. His friend has a nice 1975 or 1976 Cadillac Eldorado convertible (a '75 is rarer)

I had familiar car accident this past Saturday morning at 2am, I was not drinking ! If it wasn’t for airbags, I would be dead or like the this teenager. Thank God, I’m still alive and well !

Poor guy I’m glad he recovered I can relate to the staring it’s amazing all he came out with is a bit of a speech problem. It could of been way worse for him.

I had to watch this in Health Class and in Drivers Ed. DUI is dangerous, it cost lives, and it is stupid. Four beers was enough to paralyze Brandon I hope all of you learn from his lesson before you go partying. If you are going to drink you stay put sleep in a backroom or call a cab or take the bus. Don't touch that can, don't get behind the wheel, and DON'T DUI! it cost lives.

True story, some people are just really lucky my truck looks worse and I wasn't wearing a seat belt and I was in an old ford with no airbags so I knocked out a windshield with my head, lost some hair, shoved the gear shifter into the dash so hard it put a huge v in it. But I walked right out covered in blood like nothing happened. Did the exact same thing except it was 2 trees.

Am glad Brandon survived and he learned his lesson he could have died definitely nobody should ever drink or drive have a trusted family member or a friend to drive you if you that drunk poor Brandon I know changed his life forever and I wonder what happened to the person driver that crashed into Brandon? it made Brandon hit the windshield.

No airbags back in 1987. Airbags will also help as well.

I would've crashed at his friends for the night. Better to be safe than sorry.

This Story is why it’s Wrong to Drive After Drinking Alcohol 🍺

The Lord really spared his life

I never drink alcohol in my life.

The way I see it, if you're going to host a party where everyone gets stupid drunk, either let them stay over or be held responsible if they decide to drive drunk.

Don't drink and drive or go to jail as fucking hell just like what the hell happened to Brandon

The law does take into consideration of his injury despite the actual crime. Its fair to say his permanent injury is punishment enough, more punishment than what prison would offer. Now if he killed or injured someone else, some form of prison time would be a given.

For every drink you have, you must wait an hour before driving!!! You can't even sit in the car, if its parked and you never planned to drive it at all, what a "fucking rip off"!!! It's not like you can actually hurt someone at all.

@vinaymulukutla358

Жыл бұрын

We have that law over here too. If you're over the legal alcohol limit and you sit in a parked car behind the wheel, you can get done for drunk driving. And I don't think waiting one hour is enough, alcohol can persist in your system for several hours even if you feel fine.

Omg he had to learn alot after that crash this is so so scary ,i never drink and i would never think twice of not drink and driving

Couldn't imagine having to be in Jay shoes having to call Brandon parent's. Thank god for the neighbor calling emergency services

Talk about irresponsibel teens. Ok, I understand if Brandon and his friend mistakely thought he could make home that night despite have drank alot, but dude!...you just his sideswiped a guardrail while driving home....God (fate) was trying to tell you something.

This is why the drinking age was raised from 18 to 21. Too many young people getting into drunk driving accidents. Most got killed..

Thankfully vehicles are made alot safer today. Seatbelts, airbags and other safety features. Vehicle accidents are alot less fatal today than they use to be. But, driving and drinking is still very unsafe.

Glad Brandon learned his lesson.
