Damn lucky for you and no damage on the vehicle. Not so much for the damage going to be done to her Lisence and Insurance. That's what she gets though...

That's BS. They didn't have any problem taking me in based on a witness account. Long story...

SORRY! I was stupid 15 years ago. I don't drink anymore.

Exactly right. That's how I got off.

I know...I was lucky. I learned from it.

Just in case you weren't aware of the statistics, there are over 33,000 people killed a year due to drunk driving.

it's good that you're ok, situations like that usually don't turn out the best.

so here's my drunk story in a nutshell. Coming home with my girlfriend (now my wife) and we're stopped getting ready to turn on to her road, i look up in the mirror and say **** hold on, and try to floor it and we get slammed by a dodge ram doing 60. So we go go off flying towards some trees and i'm thinking that it game over, then we hit the ditch and go end over end a couple times flying between the trees and land with driver door on the ground facing the way we came. Amazingly we walk out the back of the jimmy, i had a cut on my arm from glass and my wife had a bruise from the seat belt since she was hanging from it.

So the ambulance gets there, firemen, police, sheriff, everyone and start taking care of everything and start testing the other guy. He is .01 under the then current Michigan limit, if it was like 2 months later, they changed it and he would have been drunk. he claimed he was UNTYING his shoe at the time and didn't see us. wtf... so that's the short version, just happy everyone was safe.

Well, I got the incident report and talked to the LT. he said she went to court Monday and wanted to plead guilty to OUI and operating after licence revocation, but the judge told her to get a lawyer and continued the case. me thinks she does not have a brain.

Yup, sounds like self destructive behavior to me. Too bad the rest of us have to deal with crap like that.

I had a girl side swipe my car backing out of a parking space. She was drunk and I had an eye witness but was told since they, the law didnt see her driving they couldnt charge her for hitting my car or dui. I hope you get her good!!!! I had to pay a deductible to get my car fixed by my insurance.
