On my way to the hobby shop at about 12:30 this afternoon to spend some cash I saw a guy swerving all over the road, way over onto the shoulder on then back over to the other side of the road. He would then get right up on the bumper of the vehicle in front of him. He got a ways away from me before I decided he was drunk without a doubt. Caught up with him and called 911. Gave the vehicle information and the 991 person asked if I would continue to follow him, I already knew I would.
Well after he pulled off the freeway and into a residential area he finally figured out I was following him and started to drive on circles. He then pulled into a business area and parked, I went down the street a ways, turned around and parked in the lot across from him and waited for the Police.
They showed up a few minutes later. Guy got out of his vehicle and could barely stand up. They administered the breathalizer and put cuffs on him.
One officer came over and thanked me, told me the guy has a .33 blood/alchhol level (legal limit in Minnesota is point zero-eight) so he was 4 times over the limit, also had numerrous previous DWI's. Policeman said he would forfeit his vehilce and probably spend some time in jail. Looked like he is loosing a fairly new and expensive Ford Taurus.
Good to get him off the road as sooner or later he would harm someboby, at the same time you almost feel bad for the guy too, looked to be in his mid twenties, and he already has a problem with alchohol.
