Without pain, I'd never know what comfort was.

i heard the 911 call on the radio this morning from a lady that saw it, apparently the drunk guy was driving on the wrong side of the road(obviously to hit the cyclist head on) and never even hesitated until he got home. 

Also, just a side note: it seems like many 911 calls that ive heard have the operator coming off like a jerk. But i guess they just cant have any kind of emotion or excitement in order to get the details from the caller.

The amount of %^#$^ those operators have to deal with would drive me nuts.
They get a lot of non 911 calls then when someone calls who is really in trouble they have to be calm, cool and collected as the person who called probably is not.

I witnessed a lady hit a deer with her Lexus SUV, the deer was lodged in the grill and still alive. She drove several more miles with people trying to alert her to stop. She called 911 and said drivers where harassing her and needed help as she felt she was in danger. The dispatcher told her not to go home and circle back and stop at the police station she passed. She arrived at the police station with the deer still in the grill and yes, the deer was still alive. Animal control knocked the deer out and removed it, the deer was not put down and the lady said she had no idea she hit the deer.

Government has no reason to use common sense or be efficient as it pays no price for failure.

Here's the 911 Call if anyone is interested

I still can't get over the fact the guy had no clue there was a person stuck in windshield halfway into the car where they could've likely been having a face to face conversation.  You have to be pretty f**** up to not realize it.  What's more amazing is how great the Vic has been about the whole situation.... either that or he must've made out like a bandit with insurance payoffs... or maybe he's just that good a person.  I don't know if could.

Yeah, but once he did figure it out, he was like..

Hey dude, are you coppin' a ride or what.

Quick, let me run in the house and lock the door. You might be dangerous. Grin
