Law enforcement officers and parents alike are upset about the video game Grand Theft Auto, especially the latest version, IV. In it, gamers can kill police, solicit prostitutes and hijack cars, and it's filled with profanity.

But a new addition to Grand Theft Auto IV, players can drive drunk - and that's raising eyebrows, especially with the group Mothers Against Drunk Driving. The group says it is extremely disappointed by the decision of the game's makers.  They say drunk driving is not a game and it is not a joke.

I took those concerns to police today.  I bought the game and played it with several co-workers.  All I have to say is - wow.

The parents I talked to had different reactions.  The president of the Savannah-Chatham PTA told me her son doesn't play video games, only sports.  A school board member says there are enough problems in the community without games contributing.

I also met with a traffic commander.

“How many people are going to go 'hey if I can master this, I can go out and instead of having a glass of wine or a beer with dinner, I can have 2 or 3 because I've been training how to drive intoxicated'? So these are the things that I have to worry about when stuff like this hits the market,” explains Lt. Scott Simpkins, Traffic Commander with SCMPD

Lt. Scott Simpkins with the Savannah Chatham Metropolitan Police Department also has the role of father to 10- and 12-year-old boys.

“Some people are going to say it can be used as an education as well as a game, this is just a game, you know you have to pick and choose your battles.  Well, I'm here to tell you, Scott Simpkins as a father, I'm picking and choosing this battle,” continues Simpkins.

We went to the online forums for comments. Some players we talked to say there's usually 10 to 12 pages per game.  When we looked for Grand Theft Auto IV, there were more than 140.  One says: "to anyone who hasn't driven drunk, it exaggerates the effects to a degree that i'm sure would scare someone from ever trying to really drive drunk, so it's actually helping their cause"

"Immediately, I think well good, that's the kind of response I'd hope to see, but I think that's going to be a small number,” says Simpkins.

This game is rated M for mature, so you do need to be 17 to purchase it.  When we bought it today, a reminder popped up for the cashier to ask if the customer was born on or before May 1, 1991.

Simpkins says talk to your children and make rules telling them they're not allowed to play these sorts of games.
