Cid Posted September 6, 2006 Share Posted September 6, 2006 Just thought you guys should know this moring I got hit by a drunk driver when I was walking home from work. I seen him just in time to move slightly. Besides geting banged up the only thing that happened was me tearing a leagament in my left writs. Now I cant become a police officer untell it heals and that will take 1-2 months they say. Just wanted to tell you all. Link to comment

Jennster Posted September 6, 2006 Share Posted September 6, 2006 Wow that's seriously crappy. We seriously have a problem with drunk driving here in UT...I'm sure its bad everywhere but it seems there's always a story about some drunk driver on the news Link to comment

Hope75 Posted September 6, 2006 Share Posted September 6, 2006 Do you know the make and model of the car? Description of the driver? How do you know he/she was drunk? Link to comment
southerngirl Posted September 6, 2006 Share Posted September 6, 2006 Oh geez I hope you get well soon! Some people have no sense of right and wrong that they would hit you and then keep going! Sorry that happened to you, I do hope they catch the other driver! Link to comment
justpaisley Posted September 7, 2006 Share Posted September 7, 2006 That's awful - I hope you recover quickly! Link to comment
Cid Posted September 7, 2006 Author Share Posted September 7, 2006 Do you know the make and model of the car? Description of the driver? How do you know he/she was drunk? I did not get the make or model, the driver was male that is about it I know, and the police said that it looked like the same car hit a parked car just after hiting me. I dont remember that much about the accedent I hit my head hard but not that hard or the hospital staff would have keep me there longer. Link to comment
Cid Posted September 7, 2006 Author Share Posted September 7, 2006 Here is a update, I was just contaced by the police that they found the guy, he is now in jall. As of my arm it looks like I will have to go to get surgery. It is so hard to type with my are like this. My police career will have to go on hold. This will take about 1 year before my arm is back like it was before the acadent. Link to comment
RelaxByWater84 Posted September 7, 2006 Share Posted September 7, 2006 I'll pray that you have a quick and speedy recovery. I'm glad that you weren't hurt worse. My friend's friend got hit and never made it. I'm glad that you got out alive. I hope you can still become a police officer. Link to comment
