Over the years, we've tended to chronicle unwise uses of technology here at Technically Incorrect.
This one seems destined for at least this year's Hall of Fame.
Whitney Beall, aged 23, decided to film herself driving and post the footage to the livestreaming app Periscope. This live show was noticed by a few people whose reaction was, as WTSP-TV reports, to call 911.
The reason for this was that it didn't just look like Beall was drunk. Beall declared herself drunk as she drove and filmed.
As well as alerting police, kindhearted humans tried messaging Beall to tell her to stop. The police in Lakeland, Florida, decided to give chase. They didn't have a precise location for her, but they were told she was in a Toyota.
Beall announced during her Periscope performance that she was "driving home drunk." She mentioned it several times during the long minutes that she streamed.
