Hope you got the license plate # of the guy.. dude needs to be taken off the road.. I have witnessed that same thing happening twice and I followed the drunk bastard with the police on my cell phone till they caught him. Drunk driving is stupid. Even with how "Tough" the police say they are on drunk drivers these days.. there are still too many out there. I think for the first offense.. sterilization should be the penalty. That should be a strong enough punishment to encourage people to stay home or call a taxi. 2nd offense.. amputate their hands.. no hands.. no steering.. no driving.. problem solved. Yeah its cold and brutal.. but you know.. so is getting behind the wheel when you know you could kill someone because your impaired. Drunk Driving is the ultimate form of selfishness and short of immediate death.. I think the penalties should be extreme. I can tell you that if a drunk driver killed a friend or family member of mine... I'd end up in jail and they would end up in a morgue. Just doing my civic duty to prevent it from happening again officer

Ok.. rant done.. LOL

You've got my vote.

And I'm glad your not too banged up. Hopefully you'll get lucky and spot the truck around town so you can get him off the streets.

ya same here, thanks. me and my brother are gonna drive down that road and maybe we will get lucky if he lives down there. you know what sucks, since we didnt get a license plate number we gotta pay a deductable of $500. so we get hit, smash up our car pay 500 dollars and he gets off with nothing. probably doesnt even care its smashed up. really bad luck.

here i got a picture of it
