I mean, you would most definitely need an entire crew to pilot a spacecraft of that size, so it really wouldn’t be drunk driving unless you all were hammered. In which case, probably wouldn’t get very far before some sub-system shorted out in a massive way
They have gravity generators and inertia dampeners. There’s a whole lot of space in space. Go crazy.
The only thing dramatic about flying in a Sci-Fi space ship is the music and camera angles.
I love the space battles in the early Expanse books. They are essentially
There’s a ship visible several thousand kilometers away…

In order to avoid them, they have to spend several hours at high-G thrust, nearly killing a bunch of the crew. It’s a long, slow chapter of high tension, it obeys the laws of physics, and it’s excellent.
PDCs engaged!

It’s more concerning when someone with the force gets drunk and starts moving stuff randomly 'cause it’s funny.
It’s only a problem with star wars-logic aseroid fields
