Was just in a convenience store, saw an OT8 (body) OT 5 (face) stumbling around, then she got into her car and drove off.

Do you call it in or you let things be?

maybe I didn't think this in college, but as someone with kids now, she'd get followed and called in with the quickness.

No, but I recommend Uber or Lyft now.... Everyone is different and 3 drinks for me may be different for you. So I hope people know their limit. Too many options now to get home to drive home with a buzz or drunk.

She was even talking to the clerk about how she needed cigs (trashy) 'cause she was drinking tonight.

Yes. Of course you can offer some kind of driving service first, but if she declines I would call cops. Hopefully she didn’t kill anyone or herself. That’s not being a snitch that helping her and/or her potential victim.

Frick naw.

I day drink almost 100% of the time on my off days from work and 0% on the day i have work.

I get up and by 10-11am, i crack open a beer. I want to go to bed at a normal hour by 8-9pm cause i don’t go out and be able to get up and make the kids breakfast and do normal daily stuff.

So there there i a very likely chance i would blow a BAC at like 1pm so no baw, i ain’t snitching on no one for drinking and driving.

Sounds like you have (at best) one out of two.

You only have a short window while your kids are still kids, you’re blowing it day drinking.

If they are drunk enough to be noticeable they shouldn’t be driving. No shame in reporting them, you are potentially saving someone’s life.

Went to a social event, and a US Marshal was late. Said he was detained because an obvious drunk was on the road ahead of him (he was in his private car) and he was on the phone with 911 to let them know.

The pitiful part is that the local cops never showed up. Marshal finally gave up and went about his businesses.

Kids are a lot more tolerable after a couple beers.

I remember riding around with the old man in the station wagon, he’d sip on his beer and be right jolly.

A road beer isn’t some grievous sin

I’ve had family killed by drunk drivers, it would’ve save their life had someone “snitched”. Call it in.

do you also consider chasing down people who are texting while they drive? you know, since it’s almost 10 times more dangerous


I guess MADD doesn’t think a campaign against distracted driving is as sexy to donors

I've done this once. They guy was driving down Flannery road and nearly hit several cars head on. By the time the police cought up with him, he was at the red light on GSR and joor stopped at the light on the wrong side of the double yellow lines.



This baw just wanted me to call a tow truck for him. He didn't know what was going on, either from shock or alcohol or both. I thought for fure I'd see a crushed body in the passangers seat, but thank God he was alone.
