DH just stopped a drunk driver

picture this- a midnight jog around queens is interupted by the sound of metal hitting metal

you look up and see a car coming and hit a parked car

you see a cop- you stop the driver- you get the cop

THE COP LETS THE DRIVER GO AFTER HE HITS A PARKED CAR

you run home, get your wife and your car- you go out looking for the guy- his car was barely movable- you find him

car running in the parking lot

you go to tell 911 the number of the car he hit

and he driving again

you follow him

him almost hits 5 cars

you block him in

on the phone with 911

DH takes his keys and chucks them

better cops come

bye bye drunk driver

the end!

Re: DH just stopped a drunk driver

Wooo!!! That is kind of dangerous on your part. You never know how this guy might of acted. He could of had a gun on him. There is alot of crazy people in this world.
I can see how your DH felt though!! I hate drunk drivers.

Re: DH just stopped a drunk driver

DH is brave

he is also 270 lbs and a former bouncer

I was shaking

but this is our hood- and my car has been hit while parked

and more importantly kids walk around this area- we have a movie theater and tons of resturants- there are always kids walking around

he could have killed someone

it was scary- but it was the right thing to do

DH couldn't believe it when he saw the guy driving again after hitting the first car

Why did the cop let him go in the first place.

no idea

Jake thought they were arresting him- so he jogged away- when he came back around - Jake saw him driving holding is bumper Chat Icon

(our neigborhood is a circle)

ETA- DH talked to the guy at this point- and realized how drunk his was

we thought he was going to sleep it off in the parking lot

so our plan was to get the plate number for the car that was hit

but once he started moving- we weren't going to let him kill someone

Re: DH just stopped a drunk driver

i know your trying to do the right thing in all, but you don't know how crazy people are...you don't know if they have weapons in the car, you don't know he could ram you with his car...you just don't know...

i question the first cop in this thing...

i commend what you did but very dangerous...let the police handle it...

I would report the cop too. Who the heck lets a drunk driver go on their way in their car.

Re: DH just stopped a drunk driver

Why did he get you? That was dangerous...Im old school but he should have went alone if he wanted to go...

Its a great thing he was concerned and Im glad it turned out the way it did but thats scary.

Wow, that was pretty brave. Thank goodness for people like your DH. I couldn't let something like that go knowing there were people around who could get hurt.
