Let's keep our eyes peeled for idiots who are risking all our lives. People still think it's acceptable just because it's Christmas time.
Do ring the boys in blue with a reg No. if you see someone clearly drink driving. You're doing them and us a favour.

Be careful driving. Happy Christmas!

we (family) went to manchester to see the christmas market and on getting back to the ncp we saw a bloke fumble with the paystation stink of alcohol and in a foul mood stumble upstairs! he wasnt a wino, he had a briefcase and had a suit on...
didnt see him get his car but you assume he did
jeez! :shock:
-
The problem is there is a lot of idiots out there that dont have to be drunk to drive like a drink driver nowadays, mind you it could be a good way to report other pillocks as well for bad driving :twisted:

If they drive like a drink driver... report them as such... I'm sure it'll take priority and what's more... even if they are sober, it'll give them pause.
If they aint... GOTCHA! :twisted:

-
Yeah, i am like that as well, i dont mind a drink now and again, but then i also dont mind being sober and driving for everyone else.
-
I always drive these days as i'm t-total, i also despise drink drivers as there really is no excuse.

When I was working in Norfolk, we got called to a report of a drink driver who had gone round a roundabout the wrong way and gone head on into a car.
The drunk got out and tried to run off, but hadn't noticed the Dog Unit behind him. He runs, as does the dog, who gets a mouthful of rump.
Drunk still wants to fight, and it takes four of us to restrain, cuff and place him gently in the back of a Blue Light Taxi.
On arrival at the town's Guest House for those with Anti-Social Tendencies, he continues to play up and has to be placed in arm locks and walked to his ensuite accomodation. He was not being very polite at all and was casting doubts on my parentage, the cad!
As he is doing so, he continues to stuggle so violently he dislocates an arm, but is that drunk he doesn't notice.
He is taken to the local hospital where he is abusive to staff, and eventually gets his arm put back in, without anesthetic, I hasten to add.
Come the following morning, he has calmed down and is charged and taken to court. I was on earlies so had the 'pleasure' of escorting him.
He is taken into the dock, and stands before the magistrates. There is a very long pause in the procedings.
The Chief Magistrate is wearing a neck brace. He stands up and tells the Clerk of the Court that he cannot hear this case. He leaves, and after ten minutes another Magistrate takes his place.
The obnoxious bloke pleads guilty, but gobs off about Police heavy handedness. By putting in a guilty plea he was hoping for a reduced sentence, but was rewarded with 6 months inside and a 3 year ban, and a hefty fine. He then collapses in the dock, through shock at the sentence.
There are several morales to this tale:
1) Don't Drink Drive.
2) Don't run when there is a large, pointy toothed, hungry, naffed off German Shepard Police dog behind you.
3) Don't crash head on into a car containing the local Head Magistrate and his wife.

Got what he deserved by the sounds of it, some people are right arses when drunk and usually they dont even realise when then sober up!
-
The first drink driver I had was one that forgot to go around the roundabout! :shock: he got out his car and threw up at my feet, the blew positive and passed out! :shock:
He got a 18mth ban etc etc
Just don't do it, if you suspect someone report them, its not grassing someone up its possibly saving a life :lol: which in my eyes is a good thing.

Boggert,
Whats the highest you have had on a positive?
I nicked a coach driver who was driving the local bingo run with fifty old folk on board. One of them called us after he ran three red lights and drove up the pavement. He blew 212!
Technically dead through alcohol poisoning. He got 18 months inside and a life time ban.
-
all these police stories... must be a lot of laughs sometimes...saw on a tv programme someone was stopped for drink dirving, got out of the car, stumbled to the officer, claimed he wasnt guilty, was breathalized, then passed out LOL

Seen a few of those myself with German Shepard dental imprints on their posterior :lol: :lol:
You just hope the Dog's not caught anything.
They come in bitching about the Dog biting them, but if they'd stop moving, they'd be fine
However, I'll bet that the Dogs love it when they struggle as 'the game' lasts longer :wink:

Yes.... that's familiar as well :lol:
If you want anaesthetising before 'manipulation', don't start gobbing off at a 6'2", 17stone R*gby playing A&E Consultant.
Screaming like a girl won't get any sympathy after abusing everyone.

I check my PNB tomrrow, however I was out with the speed gun and I stopped the School Bus going past the school in the "School safety Zone advisory 20mph" doing 53mph! :shock: yep he bricked him self when we pulled him over and yes he is in the brown stuff with his boss.
I remember one PBT we had when my colleague stopped the car the guy wouldn't put his beer down! :lol: what a fool. He had over 40 empty beer cans in the back, loose all over the seats and floor, claimed he was taking then to the recycling station. :lol:

Slightly off topic but as told by my sister... who at the time worked the "Van" for a force north of the border... who shall remain nameless!
If any of you end up getting a ride in a blue light taxi...
Listen out for a cry of "Oh no... look out for that black dog...!"
Quickly followed by an emergency stop...!
Crew are hanging on... custody hasn't quite realised when their face meets the mesh of the cage.
"sorry guv... dog ran out in the street... had to drop the anchors... sudden like..." O:)
:(biglaugh):

Priceless :lol: :lol:
I'll have to ask the crew of one of the 'taxis' next time I talk to one (or suggest it at the least)
A retired Sergeant once told me about the 'long-walk' to the cell in the 'good old days'
If someone had been arrested for assaulting a woman, OAP, child, NHS worker, or a Police Officer - he was made to walk between 2 lines of all available Officers (plus maybe the civilian staff?) on his way to his cell.
Collecting a wallop off each Officer on the way there.
Now whether this is true or not I don't know, & the Sergeant may have passed away by now?

That is awesome! There must be lots of black dogs around!
One thing I could never work out was why the smallest people think they can win.
I used to work with a guy who was ex-RM commando. He was a rather big chap at 6ft 5ins, and had to have his shirts made to fit due to the size of his arms.
One night we were on Public Order footbeats and this shrimpy little drunk comes up to Big Des and starts to gob off. Des, without a word, swats this bloke round the side of the head, which was like watching a grizzly swat at a fly.
Bloke hits the deck,Des picks him up one handed by the belt, opens the back of the van with the other, and tosses the bloke in. Not a word was said, and the crowd that had gathered, disapeared. :twisted:

My Sargent said it use to be like that program "Life on Mars" thats how it was, I suspect you friend was telling the truth.
We had an incident recently where two guys dressed as Batman and Robin got drunk and started a fight in the street, they were eventually chased down the street and arrested for assault. The CCTV footage is hilarious, the only thing is missing was the "KAPOW" and "BANG" luckily they were too drunk to do any harm to anyone! :lol:
The local paper ran the story "Batman Banged UP"
I must stress seeing 3 for my colleagues chasing the Caped Crusader and his partner was a sight to be seen!

had a works do when i worked in a big garage and every one paid for the mini bus and i drove and everone had a great time and no grief at all
I seem to end up driving everyone everywhere too.
One pluss side I find of not drinking is people put money towards fuel and my mates wont let me buy a round if I am driving them home again. Seems like a good deal to me. :D

Strike one Polish lorry driver! I nearly got totalled tonight on the way home from work by an HGV all over the road. I got out of the way, got past, and luckily saw a traffic Q car ahead. Told them, and they did the biz!
Hurrah!

Bumped into this thread whilst searching for something else, but I've added a few quotes to it
The drunk got out and tried to run off, but hadn't noticed the Dog Unit behind him. He runs, as does the dog, who gets a mouthful of rump.

However, I'll bet that the Dogs love it when they struggle as 'the game' lasts longer :wink:
Saw another Canine arrestee a couple of days ago, he was hobbling & grumbling.
Apparantly, he'd kicked the Dog which made it mad.
The handler had seenhim do it, & therefore was in no rush to call it off
Before it was demolished, there was an old Asylum* in our grounds, well it was built many years before our buildings (both were under the Wakefield Health Authority though)
After closure (due to the 'Care In The Community' provisions), sections of it were used by Wakefield Police for training Dogs
It could be interesting if you happened to be down there visiting the (still) occupied sections & a slavering GSD charged around the corner looking for the 'padded man' :shock: :lol: :lol:
The drugs Spaniels were generally friendly, if stereotypically bonkers
As he is doing so, he continues to stuggle so violently he dislocates an arm, but is that drunk he doesn't notice.

That was a recent occurance again, said scrote had fallen down a flight of stairs whilst incapable.
He was treated by one of the Specialist Registrars this time though, but with the same result :wink:
(abuse = low dose of anaesthesia)
* This asylum provided the English language with the phrase; 'As Mad As A Hatter'

I've just remembered another incident that showed immense self-control from a member of the Nursing staff.
It was approaching the 'festive season' & we had a woman brought in from a RTI.
She was drunk, had tried to stick to back-roads in order to (hopefully) avoid any patrolling Police.
However, she misjudged one corner & ran into a house (no garden, as it was a corner property)
Once she'd been extricated, breathalysed, subsequently arrested, then brought to us, discussions with the arresting Officers provided a weird fact.
The Nurse who was looking after her would be going home to a house with a front room wall that was very different to the one she'd left that afternoon!!
And to the best of my knowledge she never mentioned it to the woman, now that's self-restraint!!

Drink Drivers - main reason I'm no longer with HantsAmb
Its hard to be sympathetic and caring to someone thats just killed an innocent and doesnt even know/care about it.

Thread jack!!!
Interesting police stories! :lol:
back on topic i personally will not sip a glass if i think i may be driving. This faith was greatly emphasised when xmas 2005 a friend lost his pregnant ex-wife, and the mother of his child to some "youth" in a nova who decided he could handle a few drinks before driving home. they were stood at a bus-stop on xmas eve waitng to go home.
sickening, and moreso when its someone you know.
there was a similar muppet across the road, he was sat in the garden with cans all day, the car kept dissapearing (to the shop for more) and returning, unfortunatley he vanished for the night before i had chance to execute my masterplan of letting down two tyres (on opposite sides of the car) and ringing the police...
:roll:

I've been tee-total since I started driving-lessons at the age of 17........ I'm 42 this year
I thought it was better to cut it out entirely, than ever be tempted to risk driving 'under the influence'
-
i can see how some people may be pressured into "just a quick one" ...and "feel ok to drive"
theres the sly one, the morning after, and although people may feel fine, they are still less reactive, and should not drive!
Ja`s tip... drink as much water as you can before you go to bed, you`ll feel much better while your stood in the bus shelter the next morning :wink:
-
Best mate was killed by a drink driver when he was 17 so I'm happy to lock them up.
I won't even have one and drive, thats not just because I'm in the police, its always been like that.
