Ohhh, I got lucky tonight...

[looseliam]

No not in that way.

So anyway;

My sister and I went bar hopping tonight. She was dressed as a playboy bunny and I as a Navy Admiral.

We leave the last bar at 3:45am. I exit the parking lot at full throttle.

-I'm really drunk now, which means that I was even more dunk when this happened.

I see the cop pull out behind me. Follows me a bit, and pulls me over when I'm about to turn.

He comes up to the car and asks if I've been drinking. I, of course, tell him no. I inform him, then, that I'm picking my drunk sister up because she isn't in a case to drive.

He tells me he has to check my license. O.K. He comes back and not only does he not give me a ticket for 58 in a 40, but thanks me for being the designated driver.

LOL!

Sometimes I swear I've a horse shoe up my ass.

So yeah, that was tonight.

Happy after Halloween! =]

Your actions are no laughing matter. Drink driving is reckless and stupid. I lost a good friend when he was hit head on by a drunk driver. He never stood a chance. The drunk bastard survived.

Grow up.

looseliam or loser liam?

You seem to think that drunk driving is a joke! Drunk drivers KILL people, usually innocent mums, dads and kids. Wake up to yourself!

 

[HourglassGuy]

Dude, that's not funny. A friend of mine was killed in a drunk driving accident and I was in the car with him. One minute we're talking, the next minute a drunk driver smashes into the driver's side door and kills him on impact. It was crazy and I'll never forget that shit... his family's life is turned upside down now. And it's definitely not a laughing matter.

You did get lucky, though. Only the luck wasn't that you avoided a ticket. The luck is that you didnt get yourself or someone else killed.

Last night coming home from the Halloween Tuesday at Cobalt I got to watch a drunk in action. I'm still not sure how the hell they did it or what they were doing but their car turned to the left, they must have snapped the wheel back but their front tire on the passenger side caught the rear tire on the parked car they hit.

The accident tore their tire off (which they proceeded to try to drive down the street another block and a half) and they practically ripped the parked car's rear driver's side tire off the car.

I was afraid to drive through all the glass and metal on the road (didn't want my tires looking like theirs) so I called 9-1-1 and then had to back up a block to go around. Not sure what happened but watching them get out of their car I am pretty sure they should not have been driving.

The only reason you were lucky is because you didn't cause an accident or harm someone. If you can afford to go to the bar and drink yourself stupid, you can afford to pay for a cab ride home.

I guess you still had to be drunk when you posted this to find it funny, but I hope by the cold light of a new day you realize how stupid you were.

Not only that, but how stupid was the cop?

 

[herenthere]

Thanks for the memory!!!

I lost my twin brother to a drunk driver...

 

[meshboy]

What a twat! Why the fuck would you wanna brag about drinking and driving. In the course of my work, I rehabilitate and educate cocks like looseliam and some of the stories I hear are pretty similar to what my fellow jubbers are noting.

Get your head sorted out Looseliam - if you think that's funny you need a fucking lobotomy!

 

[EveretteB1975]

i agreed with the follow jubbers driving drunk is no funny matter. u should have taken a taxi home.

 

[Dave_83]

like EVERYONE else in this thread, I AGREE with everyone else in this thread. lol. Lucky your sister isnt dead. bad

 

[sheep]

My best bud got rammed head on by a drunk. He was about 23. My friend died. The drunk was fine.
This should be a wake-up call. End of lecture.

The drunks are always the ones who walk away from an accident. Bastards!

As far as the investigation could tell ... the pickup truck ran a red light, plowing into the passenger side of the Toyota Celica. My youngest sister, the passenger in the Celica, wearing her seatbelt, was killed instantly. Her fiance died, moments later, as the driver's side of the Celica smashed into a utility pole. The pickup driver only suffered a few bruises. And, yes, he was drunk at the time.

I sincerely hope that for your sake, and your sister's sake, and for the sake of all who are reading this, that you've found this true story SOBERING!

Most sincerely,
Chaz

 

[Kyanimal]

To be completely forthcoming about my above story ...

It happened in Westlake, Ohio, at around 1am, or so, on Labor Day weekend, 1982. John, and my sister, Chris, had been out partying themselves. Truth be told, we're not exactly sure who ran which light. Everyone involved had been drinking!

So ... the drunk drivers can be the victims, too.

What could have happened, Liam, if there had also been a pickup truck as you sped out of the parking lot?

Just some food for thought ...

Sincerely,
Chaz

Next Wednesday marks the 2 year anniversary of my brother coming to an abrupt arboreal stop. He hit a palm tree at 90MPH with a BAC of 0.3. I, too, am not without alcohol-related tragedy. And to those who also have, my sympathies to you.

Perhaps I should clarify: what I found amusing was the fact that I was thanked for being the designated driver.

I drink often, but rarely drive. I do know, believe it or not, when not to be behind the wheel. However, in this instance the bar is only a mile or two down the road and a quick drive. Not an excuse, yeah I know.

Hey guys, he's from Chicago where the cops are stupid and the drivers, worse.

Yep! Chicago and Cook County cops are the worse. And we drivers are in a class of our own. Just look at the Edens on any given day.

 

[Kyanimal]

Liam, Buddy! It's just that we Care about YOU!

I went to school at Northwestern, and had my share of "experience" with the Chicago "Constabulary"! And, yeah!, the cop's reaction is rather amusing, in it's own sense. (Especially with You in your Admiral's costume!) I don't dismiss the Humor in THAT! I can see how it could be considered pretty funny!

But ... I have to say ... I don't think it was a Horseshoe up your ass, as much as it may have been something else that starts with "H"! (Like, maybe, your "Head"??)

O.K. We're all guilty of doing Stupid Stuff! And, yeah!, I even have to admit that I've been guilty of "mild" DUI, (given the more strict definitions these days) even after my sister's tragic demise. But, only when there were no other alternatives, and NEVER when I KNEW I'd had too much!

Thank Goodness this may just be an interesting tale to tell the Grandkids! But, given your own experiences, I also hope you realize this story could have had a much Unhappier ending ... being told by someone else.

So ... PLEASE! ... Liam, and Everyone Else (including Me!) ... TRY to THINK, even after the Drink ... and do NOT attempt to Drive! It doesn't always turn out Amusing!

Just one "Sinner" to Another ...
Chaz

I think we learn two things from this thread:
1) Dont drink and drive.
2) Don't drink and drive and post about it.

I am really sad for all those who have posted who have lost friends and family and I hope that all who read their posts take the message to heart.
