| Not sure that this doesn't better qualify for RANT & RAVE but my award for all time goes to:-
The young lady who picked her son up from the school which our grandchildren attend and then smacked into the side of my stationary car because she was DRUNK at 3:10 pm!!!!
Fortunately no-one was badly hurt but my car could have been a child. One of her friends removed the car keys and called the police. I gather that she has problems and have no wish to add to them but .....
It could have been a child
I worked and waited for some years to get my car. It will probably require two new panels and a fair bit of respraying. A very expensive brand new tyre (not even a week old, I haven't even paid for them yet!) was also damaged and the air bag was set off!!! I do hope she is insured. Needless to say the countless witnesses disappeared into thin air once the spectacle of her arrest had passed. Got very scary when my husband was then cautioned and breathalysed too (obviously not a problem and just procedure they said but still scary).
I don't condone drinking and driving in any way at all but I do see a degree of difference between someone who is slightly over the limit who stupidly drives home late at night, to being incapable in the afternoon and picking your child up from a busy first school.
