Seven-Car Crash Leads to Six DUI Arrests

[pokerfan]

I just assume everyone's drunk these days...

An ugly seven-car crash in Georgia over the July Fourth weekend led to six DUI arrests and sent two people to the hospital with serious injuries.

The chain-reaction crash occurred on Interstate 75 south of Atlanta about 4 a.m. Friday. Southbound lanes were blocked for six hours.

No one was killed, but five of the seven drivers have been charged with DUI, Atlanta's WSB-TV reports. A sixth driver will also face DUI charges after he's released from the hospital.

1. Damn!

2. 4 am on July 4th weekend in a city with virtually no public transportation to its suburbs

Why am I not surprised.

3. No package sales on Sunday, but the bars are open.

And why no public transportation outside the perimeter? They're just positive that those inner-city hoodlums (blacks) will use it to come out and rob them.

4. Are the bars in Atlanta really open on Sundays?

Because they certainly don't sell any type of potent potable in the airport on Sundays.

5. They were when I lived there, but that was early '90s, things might be worse now. n/t

11. Yes they are...

GA now even has Sunday alcohol sales at grocery, convenience, and liquor stores in most counties and/or municipalities. I'm not sure why the airport hasn't yet allowed Sunday alcohol sales though.

6. 4th of July weekend used to be my prime party time of the year.

no NYE for me - that was amateur night.

At 4:00 a.m. there's nothing BUT drunks left on the road.

8. So let me guess...

the sober one caused it?

9. Wow, someplace besides New Mexico?

I'm both astonished and amused. Usually those stories come from around here, an area where we have people with DUIs in the double digits but how always seem to manage to get wrecks running to drive drunk again in.
