[QUOTE="HotRodZilla, post: 1360728, member: 13519"] I'm my 20 years at this, I have been to exactly one crash where the drunk guy didn't cause the crash. I have been to hundreds where the drunk guy did cause the crash. I have also been to hundreds of hit and run crashes. This includes single vehicle crashes, where a fence or pole was taken out and the car was left behind, and crashes involving a sober victim hit by a driver that either ran away on foot, or drove away and wasn't found. NONE of those hit and run crashes are reporated as alcohol related. In those cases, the "Sobriety Unknown" box has to be checked, because even thought we KNOW the driver is probably drunk, we can't PROVE the driver is drunk. Because of the requirement of proof, alcohol related crashes are severely UNDER-REPORTED.. Again, Bounce, you have false information about how law enforcement is actually done, but spout off like it's fact. You should go to a citizen's academy in your area, and go on some ride-alongs. You'll only begin to understand how much you actually don't know, and how much Internet lore you have actually bought into. There is no bias in Uniform Crash Reports. Sorry. [/QUOTE]
