Essex man calls cops to report himself for drunk driving

 

An Essex man pulled his car to the side of the road, put on his four-way flashers and called police to report he was too drunk to drive!

I've never heard of something like that, even if he should not be driving on the first place I respect he realized that and asked for help.

 

When police arrived, the man was still on his cellphone talking with OPP dispatch. Officers found an open bottle of liquor.

 

“In all my years of policing, I’ve never heard of anybody doing this before,” said Const. Kevin O’Neil with the Ontario Provincial Police. “I’ve been doing this job a long time and you always think you’ve heard or seen everything. But needless to say, some of us were a little bit surprised by what we heard about this.”

Donald Dummer, 55, of Essex, was arrested and charged with impaired driving. He will appear in court next month.

 

Either he was responsible or too drunk to give himself up.

Anyway: DO NOT DRINK AND DRIVE

and DO NOT DRINK AND TRY TO FORMAT YOUR PC!

Glad he turned his self in. Could have been a very different story if he stayed on the roads.

Plot Twist, 

 

Man sues the police and files a rights violation complaint because "he didn't know 911 could track him" and "the drunk driving laws break the rights of honest drunk drivers"
