The Sobering Report is an annual report that becomes more impaired the more you scroll. Blurry and warped text and images emulate impaired vision. Difficult scrolling simulates declining motor function. Even the phone’s accelerometer reacts to movement by shifting and sliding the report to show loss of balance. Eventually, everything becomes totally incomprehensible. Users can also ‘sober up’ any time to read the report, demonstrating that the safest way to drive is 100% sober.
