Call the cops on drunk drivers?

Yesterday was an exhaustive 18hr day for me. Had multiple flights and flew over 700nm through clear weather, bad weather, day and night. Perfectly safe. No problem.
Then, I get in my truck to head home at 2am to embark on my 20-minute drive home. Within 30 seconds of leaving the airport, I heard gunshots (9 to be exact). Then, I get on the interstate and was nearly hit multiple times by the first drunk driver. Not 5 minutes later I was almost slammed into by another drunk driver. The icing on the cake was yet ANOTHER drunk driver who was in the middle of the road, stopped, and passed the frick out at the wheel.
What is your take on calling the po-po on drunk drivers?
Part of me is like "frick them, they'll get it sooner or later" but the majority of me is of the "what if they kill somebody" mindset.

The first person was a female who went from 60 to about 20 multiple times, swerving between lanes.
The second was a guy in a Tahoe who was swerving and speeding and almost hit a guardrail.

Absolutely call the cops. Or just euthanize them, that's about all they deserve.

I call the cops on erratic drivers all the time. It's fun

If you see people that are out there driving around hammered and almost "slamming" into other drivers and you don't call the cops you are an a-hole

This happened to me at Taco Bell last night. This girl who was tipsy bumped the back of my car 3x. I told the employee she was drunk and the manager called the cops, no idea what happened to her, but frick her.

Sounds like you were fatigued as frick and driving shitty

They could be drunk, on drugs or having a legit medical emergency. I feel like it's worth reporting so someone can check on them, for their own sake and the sake of someone they may hit. I'm not talking someone who might slightly weave a time or two. I'm talking repeated dangerous crap that's endangering people, including the driver.
Yeah, I'm biased. I worked EMS over 20 years and saw plenty. It usually isn't the drunk who is killed or maimed in a collision. I've also run across a few diabetics who were pulled over for erratic driving...and one who was having a heart attack. Well worth placing a call.

Maybe they had other health problems and couldn't afford an ambulance, so they decided to drive themselves to the hospital. Did you even ask?

I've done it twice in my life. Once in Sherman, Texas when I was going to see a friend at Austin College and once on 45 near Buffalo going down to College Station. Both times they were swerving to the point that I slowed down out of fear they would hit me if I tried to pass them.
frick em. I have no sympathy for that kind for shite at all.

You need to move from wherever the hell that is. That is not the norm my man.

I don't know what this has to do with being drunk. If you spot behavior like that, call the fricking cops.

I will follow them for police if asked. Hasn't happened though. I always offer.

Naw man don't be a tattle. Nothing is worse than a tattle, not even drunks causing wrecks.

What's worse is dying because a drunk hits you.
Most of the time they end up living after and an innocent person dies

Agreed. I thought the exact same thing when I finally got in bed
