OT: Hit & Run

I was driving home late last night, and was on QEW westbound (Oakville) around 3:30am. If you guys were up, you would have noticed the drizzling rain, which is the worst driving condition. Anyway, I saw this mid-90's Lexus ES300 slightly riced up, racing down QEW. He wanted to race me and stuff, but I told him to go and pass me. I wasn't about to go more than a 100km/h in rain. He was driving very dangerously--in fact, I think he was drunk. He didn't seem to have a sense of speed, because he almost rear ended a few cars for no apparent reason and jam on the brakes last second.

He passed me then started doing the same thing to the next cluster of cars ahead of us. All of a sudden I saw his back end fishtail, and immediately after that a Cavalier spun around, then crashed into the guardrail. I pulled over to make sure everything was okay. The driver was a Filipinna girl, no more than 20 years old, in total shock. I asked her if she was okay, and she said yes (she wasn't even sure what happened). I almost felt like going after the Lexus, but I didn't want to wipe out myself. So I stayed with her until the fire truck, ambulance & the police came.

While the victim was being taken to the hospital for shock, and the police was taking a witness statement from me, a classic pick up truck raced passed us, doing what looked like at least 140km/h. As I was finishing the statement, some radio calls came in. Apparently there was another hit and run just 5 minutes down, caused by that same classic pick up was just saw zooming by.

I'm betting these guys were all drinking and driving, and that's why they didn't want to stop. I hope they will be caught.............. It scares me that they'll probably be back on the road tomorrow.

Do i look queer? Of course not!! [IMG]i/expressions/laugh2.gif[/IMG]

Naw man, I honestly didn't even know it was a girl or anything.. I just saw a car lose control and hit the guardrail. My natural instinct was help out..

You saw my car 11:15? Hmm... yeah, I was just getting onto 401 to goto Niagara Falls. Had to gamble some money..
