quote:

A Florida man said he was so scared after he watched a train hit his vehicle that he pulled two bottles of liquor from the wreckage and drank them at the crash scene
quote:

The driver, 43-year-old Danny Lee Wyatt, said he was driving home from a liquor store when he missed the turn for his street and got stuck on the tracks as the train was coming
quote:

Wyatt tried to flag down the train’s engineer, but when he realized the locomotive wasn’t going to stop, he got out of the vehicle
quote:

After the crash, Wyatt reached into his Kia Rio and grabbed a few things, including two liquor bottles, which he said he immediately drank because he was so scared
quote:

Police said Wyatt went home after that but then returned later to speak with officers.
quote:

He was arrested on charges of DUI - third offense within 10 years and refusal to submit to a DUI test after a license has been suspended.

Brilliant. Any decent lawyer can get him off of those DUI charges.

Dude went home and then returned? If he went home after the wreck, who's to say he didn't drink at the house? Smart? No...but maybe enough to avoid the charge. How do they prove he was intoxicated while he was in his car????

Leaving the scene of an accident opens other issues.

If he gets leaving the scene and no dui (or in his case 3rd offense)...it's a win for him. That being said, that dude probably doesn't need to be driving anymore....

Hopefully it does. Pretty simple to avoid getting a DUI.

My buddy’s dad got someone off a dui for a similar deal. Dude wrecked and started drinking the rest of his beer on his tailgate until cops came.

Had a drunk Mexican drive his Astro van right down the tracks, going head to head with me, one time.

Unfortunately I was stopped versus doing 60mph.

Was about 2am and I had all the lights on so it was like driving into the sun, but he kept coming til he got hung up.
