Morning NT.
So last night my sister got into a car accident. She was driving in Baltimore two cars ahead of her some one was parallel parking so she came to a stop because the car in front of her came to a stop. The car in front of her was the one that stopped for the parallel park-er.
This dude comes up the street and just hits my sister who then hits the guy in front of her. Dude was easily going 40mph and didn't even try to stop. So he gets out of the car all hyphy about "why are you even stopped". Hands in the air. My sister calls me and i showed up about 3 mins after it went down. The guy that hit her is bombed out of his mind. Not making any sense at all. Is telling me he got his phone stolen and something about the lights are bright. I was like whatever man.
Cop shows up....dude has Fire Department plates on his car. Which it turns out is his mother-in-laws car not even his. We tell the officer that the guy is wasted and needs to be arrested. She says that she can't arrest him without a sobriety test. We said ok then sobriety test him. She says she isn't equipped to do that. And I said i would like to formally request you breathalyze him. "We can't breathalyze him unless he is under arrest".
WHAT? and you can't arrest him without a sobriety test? ARE YOU SERIOUS?
So dudes wife shows up and is trying to get him away from the cops because he clearly isn't coherent. The cop then comes back up to me and says "well he said he had a few drinks and takes medication". AGAIN im like
so ******* ARREST HIM!
The tow truck shows up takes my sisters car away and the other car away. We are told to go home. Nothing is done about the drunk driver. I think it might have had something to do with the Fire Department plates. The whole situation seemed so sketchy as im getting more and more angry at the scene that nothing is being done about the fact that the dude that could have killed my sister is WASTED. Not even just drunk, dude was gone.
So we are filing a complaint with the Baltimore Police today. Have called the insurance company to get that process started. But if the dude lies and says he wasn't at fault some how then that starts an investigation and that takes a lot of time and my sister doesn't have a car....all of this could be avoided if he was arrested at the scene for DWI. Is there anything else i can do? Its too late now to get him arrested which really pisses me off.
Will upload pics of the crash shortly
