Explanation
Experiment
The joke plays on the stereotype of alcoholics seeing double due to their intoxication. The dad tries to explain what an alcoholic is by using the visual example, but the son reveals that the dad himself might be drunk, seeing 4 cars as 8 and missing the actual number of cars there.
