if u see someone driving aroung drinking alcahol in there car,would u say something to them or report it.
i was at a gas station today and saw a guy and i guess it was his wife and 2 little kids pull up and the guy was chugging a beer.then gets out and tosses it in the back of his truck where u can hear there was a few of them back there.
then goes inside the gas station starts to pump the gas and gets into his truck and cracks open another.

just curious what would any of u done if u saw this happen?

I would call to. He is going to harm his and someone elses family. Probably kill everyone and he will be the one that lives cause he is drunk.

If it's some idiot by himself then fuck it let him drive off a cliff but definently report it with kids involved. Either way tho him drinking is endangering not only other drivers but you as well.

when i called right before i hung up she asked for my #.so i wonder if it was because if they caught him they would want me to id him or if they would call back and tell me they caught him.
never had to call the pd for something other then an accident

HAHAHAHHAHAHA!

If he is stuipd enough to do that not only in public, but with his family with him...report it ASAP. That's a pretty messed up position to put your family in...


Maybe it was rootbeer?

its funny this topic came up because I followed a guy last night in a mini van and had reported him but he got off the freeway so I continued my 100 yard follow and saw a local PD got his attention and the LEO chased down the drunk shithead. I felt good and went home and slept well.

Hi Dan


Same thing happened to me a few months back, but lucky my friend was working Grave so I called him since he worked the 580/680 split, told him we were heading west on 580 and the guy almost went off the road 4 times and almost sideswipe 3 cars, by the time we got to Santa Rita exit there was 2 CHP and 3 P-Town cops waiting for him on the on ramp. Guess the truck had over a dozen open cans and he couldn't even talk when asked questions.

Sometimes telling on someone is the right thing to do, saving someones life is better then ignoring it.
