DUI is not believed to be a factor. Just another Shitty driver on HWY 36! Lucky he didn’t kill someone. Like YOU! Or someone you care about. Not really sure if the survival of such a lousy driver is a positive thing. You probably have to be doing a pretty good clip to miss that corner. Nobody really cares about his ethnicity, we have enough Crappie local drivers. Every time I get on the road I see big 4x’s who can’t stay in their lane in a straightaway. Tailgater’s who are annoyed because you want to do the speed limit. Texting cell phone user’s not watching the road. Not to mention the drunks and just plain dimwits. I’d say suspend their licenses. But I don’t think that would stop them. Maybe a special driving camp. Working on the side of the road picking up trash, where they can observe bad driving up close.
