## What is Drive Sober?

The Wisconsin Department of Transportation’s - DRIVE SOBER mobile application has been developed to assist individuals who may have had too much to drink find a safe ride home other than driving. It also serves to provide interactive information on the dangers of impaired driving, such as:

- Designated Driver Selector: Choose a color for each member of your group & spin the bottle to pick who’s going to stay sober to get you home safely!

- Find A Ride: Uses your mobile device’s GPS-feature to identify any taxi, bus or designated driver services near where you are located. NOTE: Not all services may be available.

- You Got Game: An interactive section of the app with 4 skill assessments that test your mobility, reaction time, memory and accuracy, all of which can be compromised when impaired. Please note that these games are not a definitive assessment of a person’s ability to drive. You can be arrested for drunk driving with a BAC under 0.08 if you show signs of impaired driving regardless of your ability to complete one of the games.

- Reverse It: cognitive skill test featuring spelling words backwards
- Don’t Wipe Out: skill test for stability 
- Perfect Pour: skill test for precision and accuracy 
- Tower or Topple: skill test for reaction time 

Our hope is that people who take the time to download the DRIVE SOBER app will use it constructively in the effort to help us achieve zero preventable deaths on Wisconsin roadways. We urge you to share the DRIVE SOBER app with family and friends so that as many people as possible can join the effort.

### 3/5 — Reverse

*2019-01-22, version 2.3.6*

I had difficulty typing the letters of words backwards, due to the small size of the keyboard!

### 4/5 — More content please!

*2018-06-22, version 2.3*

Especially videos!

### 5/5 — DD

*2014-08-23, version 1.9*

Driving drunk isn't cool dude.

### 3/5 — Report a drunk driver

*2014-08-10, version 1.9*

There was not a warning that pressing on "Report A Drunk Driver" would immediately dial 911 from my phone. I accidentally dialed them and wasted their time explaining that I was simply checking out an app. Perhaps a pop up screen would save some EMS time and resources.

### 3/5 — Woah!

*2014-03-15, version 1.8*

Better give me the keys, bro!

### 5/5 — What a great idea!

*2014-02-18, version 1.6*

A ton if useful information and I love the goggle affect and DD selector. Very impressive!

### 5/5 — Fun

*2014-01-07, version 1.5*

I like the spin-the-bottle driver selector! Glad the BAC calculator is better now.

### 1/5 — What a joke!

*2013-08-30, version 1.4*

This is comically bad, annoying voice and inaccurate.

### 5/5 — Really like updated version

*2013-04-11, version 1.4*

This app is very useful especially when you think about drunk bishops plowing into joggers! I like that audio clips can be turned off with mute button and BAC seems to be accurate.  I'm going to let all my friends know about this. Don't listen to haters that can find anything to complain about; even an app that can save their lives!

### 1/5 — Not accurate

*2013-03-20, version 1.2*

Buy a breathalyzer or take a class if your going to be a risk to yourself or others
