and not drunk? riiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiight

I've worked nights before and seen what 2:30 AM traffic looks like and it's wall to wall drunks. I was about the only sober one on the road and nearly got killed last time. I have no sympathy for them.

Yeah, I mean how fast would you be going in order to sustain serious injuries from your driveway?! Weird indeed.

Authorities said no alcohol was in his system. He doesn't really drink anyway, according to his own admittance.
