Puzzling incident in Dubai on a foggy Saturday morning


BabyDoll Apparently a friend of mine was stranded on SZR at dawn on Saturday morning, with 2 bust-up tyres. In addition, he had been drinking the night before. I assume he hasnt got any identification as well since he temporary lost his wallet. Police came and went. Nothing happened. What puzzled me were 1) why didnt the police help? 2) How did he get away with drink driving and without any identification on him?
^ian^ Well, the police don't suspect every driver of being drunk. He or She would have had to have been clearly drunk enough to arouse the suspicion of the police. IF you're stuck the police will ask if help is on the way. If it is, they will generally leave you to your own devices. BabyDoll Anyway I am glad everything is fine for my friend. p/s Just curious, if the police here "slightly" more lenient with lady drink driving - not dead drunk, just a couple of wino. Any ladies or lady friends with experience please share. Jeevan
hmm trying to find some info which can be helpful ha hehehehe :) Concord
I would think that with 2 flat tyres the police would be unable to help as most drivers only carry one spare tyre.
If he had no id maybe he told the police he was George Bush or something and they left him alone! Concord
depensd on whether she is cute. Good your friend is ok. BabyDoll depensd on whether she is cute. Good your friend is ok.
Damn, that throws me out completely then :x :P fayz out of curiousity how did he blow 2 tires? did he hit something? I think ian's right in that the police wouldn't automatically assume he was drunk if he wasn't showing any signs. gtmash Some of my Indian "friends" had a handful of drinks, and while heading for their car, saw a drunk driver scratch their car as he drove away. So they called the cops, the cops smelt their breath and realised they had some drinks, and told them its okay, but also told them no to bother reporting the accident since the perp wasn't around anyway. And then they all went home. BabyDoll Good to know one CAN get away with things without needing to look cute !
