    Be/get: interesting, I thought there to be a major difference (one describing a state already in, the other the process leading there).
    .

    I think it’s an alternative warning about a different danger

    What bugs me for this interpretation, is that the warning about drunk driving would then be completely missing. That doesn’t make sense somehow.

      Some states/countries have an assortment of warnings to choose from, like with cigarettes. The font is large so you don’t have to put all of them. An average drinker sees them all eventually.

        This actually sounds plausible.
        We also have the cigarettes thing.
        (But alcohol are standard warnings: pregnancy, age restrictions - no driving warnings interestingly)
