People make out it is some sort of factually wrong documentary

Say what you will about stupid people, but I have to tell you this: I've had more than a few people tell me they did not wear seat belts because "the Dukes never wore seat belts"

I am not even fucking kidding about this. It's not just about people today treating this TV show like it was a depiction of reality, it's about people at the time doing the exact same thing.
