elfs | Summary of the police report.

So, the police report is now part of the public record. Oh, boy, is it fun reading! First, he was drunk, with a BAC of 0.160, which is twice the legal limit. He failed a streetside sobriety test. "I perceived a strong odor of intoxicants on his person, which intensified when he spoke." Bureaucratese is such a strange language. Also, a witness said he saw "a yellow can" get thrown out the passenger side window, which was later identified as one of two open and very recently consumed cans of Twisted Teas Hard Iced Tea. Witnesses also confirm that I, and the car in front of me, and the car in front of her were all stopped at the light when a light-duty Ford pickup truck struck me square on, his left headlight hitting right about the center of my Forester. The physics of the accident must have been very weird, because he ended up nestled against the Honda; I was squeezed out of the wreck and into the next lane of oncoming traffic. He succeeded in destroying three cars in one blow, and doing at least cosmetic damage to a fourth.

Also, he had a loaded Ruger .357 magnum revolver in a holster on the passenger seat. I feel so safe knowing that.

Sadly, these are all only misdemeanors.

At least he had insurance.
