I pride myself in being the perpetual designated driver. It's not worth the risk. Esp after the experiences we've vicariously lived through. And really, one unintelligent driving experience is not excusable, but what horrible person continues to risk his own life and all other beings around him for 2, 3, 4, 5, 10!! times?
