I'd much rather the drunk be in front of me so I can watch him and react to his shit. Behind me is the last place I want a drunk. Good way to get rear ended. |

In this situation, MYOB = Call the Cops.
If they were hammered, and on a road you also occupied, it is your business. But let's say they weren't hammered, maybe they were having a heart attack, diabetic episode of some kind or any number of other possibilities that required immediate medical attention and caused shitacular driving. |

UPDATE!!!!
First and formost (lunyou) , what a stupid thing to say.You sir, are indeed a jackass.Asking what people would do in a situation makes me an idiot? Seriously? Ok, now that i got that off my chest.The responding police officer called my wife later last night to thank us for calling in the impaired driver.According to the officer, the woman was extremely intoxicated, and was arrested for DUI.. We asked what she blew on the road side breathalizer.The officer said she refused the test, but failed the field sobriety test, and was obviously drunk. |

Followed a car home tonight on a 2 way highway.The car ahead of us was obviously impaired.The car would swerve into oncomming traffic, and then whip the car back so fast,,he would hit the gravel shoulder.The swearving happend at least a dozen times, in the course of 15 miles.On 2 occasions, the person drove in the right turn lane, but then wipped the car back into his lane, when the turn lane ended.The guy also could not figure out when to use his bright, and dim lights.Finally the person would signal to take a left turn, where i know there was no turns there. The person was obviously in no shape to drive.What would you do?MYOB? or try to get this person off the road before he kills someone, or himself? Appropriate use of 911. Good job. |

I once followed a guy who almost hit me (i had to go off-road) who was going to kill someone by the way he was driving... while on 911 they said they already have units out on their way due to so many call ins. As I was on the phone with 911 giving direction, the guy plowed into a car with an old couple in it. The victims car was a classic mustang that the owner just finished restoring a week earlier... apparently was his pride and joy long term project. I stayed and filed out a nice report. Fuck drunks. Lost far to many family members and friends to these cockroaches. |

The arrest will be reported in tomorrow's paper, with all the other arrests (especially if it's a small town). You are probably not familiar because no one ever reads that section of the paper. |

Generally, if you have any doubts about calling, then the situation probably doesn't need us. If you see something serious enough to call, then there isn't really any doubt that we're needed.
A lot of people call when we aren't really needed. All the situation requires is someone to act like a fucking adult. I don't like responding to the stupid calls because it's a waste of time, resources and money when there's better things to be doing. I don't even want to know how many cops have been killed responding to bullshit calls that escalated simply because they were there

I was on a jury that found a guy guilty of driving under the influence. That's no biggy but what was new to me, is the guy made it all the way home, was out of his car and in the house. Sheriff had been called by someone following them and the good citizen noted the address the drunk driver went in to and passed it on to the 911 operator.
I always thought once you made it home you got away with it..........nope, not in ID.

Substitute "drunk driving" with any other crime of the same level and the "I made it home, so I'm safe" defense doesn't work for those either. |
