Well, I've done my good deed for the week....was coming home from work, and almost ran over this kid who was in the middle of the street. I stopped, since it looked like he was trying to get help, and turns out, he'd been at the strip club at the corner, and left his keys on the bar, and someone took his keys, then his car. He said it was a girl, all he knows is her name is jessica. Anyway, who ever took it totaled it against a tree about 1/2 mile from the bar. He was walking home and found it. It WAS a Geo Metro......now it's a pile of scrap metal. Whoever was driving hit the windshield and left blood on the airbag.....I don't know how they walked away.......but they'll be showing up at the hospital pretty soon. The poor kid, he was drunk himself, so he was pretty emotional, I let him call his dad, and then all he could say was his dad's going to beat his ass. I did talk to dad to tell him we weren't where his son told him we'd be, I took him to the car. While I was talking to his dad, the cops showed up. A passerby called it in.
I hope his dad isn't to hard on him, the poor kid's all busted up about his car. I'm sure the officer will be mentionng the whole drunk driving thing. I do know he wasn't the one who wrecked it because of the extent of damage to the car, and the fact he's unhurt. Could've been worse...the car stopped w/the front end hanging over a drop of about 10 feet......it would have flipped upside down, and there's no telling how worse the injuries would be. I didn't see any skid marks, so they hit pretty good. I could still hear liquids leaking, so it hadn't been out there very long.
I just didn't want to see the poor kid out there by himself trying to figure out what to do next. I'd like to think that someone would stop to help my son...he said that about 6 people passed him by before I stopped. Even the first cop that stopped said I was brave.....I told him that A) the window wasn't completely down until I knew what was up, and B), the car was still in drive, and all the doors were locked.
