In DeKalb, IL, a completely shitfaced guy had his keys in hand and his Jeep before him. "I should drive that vehicle!", thought the drunk-as-a-skunk moron. And drive it he did — right into an oncoming vehicle.

Alright everyone. If you see someone making a mistake like this, try to take the keys. Hail an Uber. Call the police. Do something! But for the love of God and everything holy, do not just watch it all unfold.

Buckle up, people. It's wild out there.

The only issue I have with that is if someone needed an ambulance, why not stop recording for a minute to call one?

That would require a level of common sense not often seen in the wild.

That's the only issue? How about those guys put a little effort into preventing the drunk from driving? Go try to talk him out of it while the other guy calls the cops immediately. Do something other then just filming it.

Also you have a victim who was just in a crash with an airbag deployment so unless the car's on fire (a rarity outside the Simpsons and Ferraris) don't move her! Those morons had no idea if there was some type of head or neck injury.

yeah, I cringed at "I just want to make sure he doesn't hit my f$#king car" and thought the same thing. Just a couple of boneheads.

I cringed. But hey, we've got a confession too!

I'm not sure what this common sense is you speak of. Perhaps I should inquire some ancient scriptures to discover its meaning.

If it's no longer common, can it be called common sense?

Dude, woah. At this point, I don't even know what's real anymore.

Am I the only one that views a drunk asshole hitting my car as an act of terrorism? That way it gives me the chance to go on the offense, granted I'm capable of it after the impact.

Well if a drunk asshole hits your car, who's to say it wasn't politically motivated?

Domestic terrorism confirmed.

Maybe he uses his Camry to hit my truck head on just to try and get another gas hog off the road?

Camry? ...or Camry Hybrid?

If it's the latter, we've got ourselves a crusader.

Doesnt matter to them. They see a truck as the killer of all things earth friendly

...until they buy a new couch. Then it's all "Hey, you have a truck right?".

From the words of the original guy recording, "you're a scumbag".

You sir are also the scumbag. You'd rather record a guy drive away and nearly kill someone rather than step in and actually do something.

Also, they should have left the woman in the car until emergency crews arrived.

Exactly. She could have had a spinal injury, but the guy was panicking too and no one was thinking clearly.

Camera guy should have called the cops instead of creating his YouTube moment. Call the cops, stay on the phone, follow the drunk, report the crash.

After the crash, leave the drunk alone. You gain nothing except your own smug satisfaction, and he won't remember anyway. Stay with the victim, but make sure the drunk doesn't leave the scene. If there's no fire, leave the victim in the car . Let the EMTs remove her.

Can't tell if that's an accent or if he's just slurring his words that bad.

Maybe a little from column A, and a little from column B.
