I figure out the strategy. Turns out its best to just guess the text message answer and focus on the road. Seems obvious in retrospect after crashing my car because I was playing this game on my phone.
Great concept very fun game. Dog/10. Only nitpick is its a bit easy to just pick an option at random since you have a 50/50 shot of picking correct and even if you get it wrong you're probably already on a line that avoids people since that's what you're trying to do normally.
There's something awfully poetic about how you get points for choosing the more morally correct answers in a game where the main premise is that you're breaking the law.
As you can probably guess, I pretty much chose to ignore messages, and just take the coinflip it was going to answer correctly.
I played in fullscreen, which was probably a mistake. The game felt pretty claustrophobic, and after I finished it, the text still seemed like it was moving.
I understand the game is pixel art, and that's why you went with pixel art font, but I don't find it very readable, which is pretty important if I were to play the intended way.
I think there were couple of instances when pedestrians spawned in a way I had no choice but to hit something.
It's a fun idea, and there is a lot of room for expanding upon the initial concept, but I don't know how far you want to take it. It would be interesting to hear your plans, and I would be happy to throw some ideas if you want.

As an avid texting-while-driving fan I had high hopes for this game and it didn't disappoint. Simple and fun.

What the FUCK do you have against Hawaiian shirts? Boycott this game.

good shit
It's a solid game with a cool idea. Can't really think of any direct improvements.
Cute game. At first glance, I expected this to be a typing challenge game, although that probably would have been too difficult.
With some tweaks and the right connections, I could see this being an official NHTSA road safety edutainment game.
Here's a short video of me playing it

I wasted a bit of time in the menu.
I finished the game on my 3rd try.

That was fun. I liked the references with the pedestrians and the dog.
Hehe fun concept. Good little waste of time. No complaints here
