Seems like a really nice guy. Honest and pleasant and cooperative. Just that whole hitting someone and leaving them to die in the woods thing that's a problem.
Well, he thought he hit a bear, so he stopped to talk to it. So, he's really Doctor Dolittle. Or Doctor Doobie... The bear of it is, had he actually stopped and called for help, he'd likely have ended up going on his way with a stern warning, maybe a modest fine for driving where he shouldn't and that would've been it. Now, he'll get felony hit and run for starters.
@@JamesWoodson071 I mean, if i told someone i was okay when i wasnt would that not be on me? like what? lmao. Ignorance is bliss i guess. Dude was obviously in the wrong hitting him and wasnt even supposed to be there, but lets not nit pick one tiny thing that isnt even right yeah? lmao.
@@zzquickszzxbl6046 😂 it’d be like saying “sure, I know I’m not supposed to drive on the sidewalk, but I didn’t see any blood, so they looked ok to me”
Lol. Yes! What a weird self snitching way to put it. " snuggled up." Wth. I too would think they're going to die. Or are so intoxicated they aren't in the right frame of mind to judge their injury or get home. They'll die from the elements if they stay snuggled up too long which all adds up to it not being OK to leave them.
Victim probably thought that these guys would kill him and dump his body to erase any witnesses. So, he’s like “Yeah, I’m fine! I’m just going to lay down here on the bridge.”
Im pretty sure that was his response to WEAR the cop was taking him. As in which specific jail. Prob not a close one or… maybe he thought he was just going to police station, and not actual jail. Which is like, oh shit so I’m actually being arrested. Poop. 💩
Leaving the guy and then pleading not guilty to everything. This 'former marine' is a true no integrity, no accountability, worthless sack of sht. Disgusting...
Definitely, a similar thing happened to me a few months ago when someone ran a stop sign and hit me while riding my bike. You are in shock to try and relieve your body from pain that you cant think straight.
I can see where you are coming from but I have seen drunk or intoxicated patients walk into the ER (we call it ED, emergency department) with breaks to lower extremities. To say they do not feel pain would be an exaggeration, indeed most felt plenty of pain but they ambulated well enough but every one of them were surprised that they had actually broken something. The victim in this case was not sober and may well of indicated that he was okay. I would not personally have left it at that (having said that I would not be driving drunk) He did leave him wrongly but it was bad judgment as was his decision to drive. I don’t think it was a malicious act to leave him. As for the drink driving I do not feel the penalties are strong enough it should carry the same penalties as involuntary attempt at man slaughter.
He left because he knew he was wrong, drunk and cared more about his punishment than another person's life. The victim was probably scared that the guy who hit him would do something bad to him so he wouldn't get in trouble.
The world's leading expert on teaching psychopathy, Sam Vaknin, States that drunks, Alcohol abusers, are the same as Is classic pathological narcissists, in many ways and only caring about themselves.
@@youropionmattersnot maybe. Maybe not, but I've watched enough of these videos to know I'm not going to trust a random stranger that just ran me over in the woods.
Yeah I bet some of the charges won't stick with any decent defense. But I don't understand not stopping and looking at any possible injuries for yourself. That seems to be anyone's obligation which he failed to do here.
If you think about it - He probably truly didn't want to leave him, but was afraid to catch a DUI charge. When victim (in a state of shock) said he's "okay", this guy must've counted his blessings and sped off.
He was obviously already passed out drunk in the woods, on a bridge. These comments crack me up. If the guy said he’s fine, then nothing else to the man, what was he supposed to do? Beg the dude to come with him?
@@CH4RA_DR3AMER If you hit somebody with a vehicle you have to stay with the victim, call 911, and wait until the police show up so you can report it no matter what the victim says. It's part of your responsibility as a driver
The drunk guy said he stopped. According to the cop that was injured guy, he was on the verge of passing out from pain. I don't think that the other guys ever stopped. The guy with the crushed ankle would have been in a world of pain and in need of an ambulance!! Pretty scary place to be helpless in the dark!
Both the driver and the victim said he stopped, so I believe that. He stopped for a moment and went "are you okay?" victim obviously wasn't, driver knew how much s**t he'd be in, left the scene and the victim in the hope he'd get away and not be identified. So still classed as a hit and run, and a massive, tower sized DI*k move! He didn't care about leaving the victim out there with a crushed ankle and foot. I'm sure he was also worried about having to pay for the mans medical care. So he stopped briefly, then took off, according to the victim and the driver.
Dump of adrenaline when you think you're going to die will keep you from feeling anything. got in a BAD motorcycle accident, got right back up, walked off the side of the road, and was more concerned about my bike than really hurting, just felt kinda bumped up. it wasn't until i tried to unbuckle my helmet and couldn't move my fingers that i realized i'd shattered my hand. Turns out i shattered my hand, shoulder, and fractured both of my heels from hitting the ground so hard.
No, the victim confirmed that the men did stop, spoke briefly, then drove off. While mustache driver feared being caught driving drunk on a “no ATVs” trail, the helpless victim may have, understandably, been *very afraid of the two men.* He’s severely hobbled and on a dark, rural trail and might’ve feared being killed and dumped in the woods by two large, intoxicated men…to never be seen again. It’s possible that he also noticed the chainsaw in the back of ATV (mentioned by the driver to officer). 😧 If injured and fearful, I may have acted similarly since there were *NO witnesses around.* I would’ve tried smiling and waving them on, to then call 911 after they were out of sight. In the days without mobile phones, this helpless victim would’ve needed to take his chances with two strangers who are already breaking laws and have the upper hand…in remote country woods. 😬
@@Mike.The.Jeweler Damn. Nearly the same thing happened to me. T-Boned by a left turner. I ripped my arm out of socket and fractured the top of my humerus. It took 15 minutes for me to realize that after the accident, when.. like you, I tried to take my jacket off.
Gotta be fair, it was refreshing to hear. I get why he wouldn’t admit he was intoxicated, though. Any lawyer will tell you to say nothing and admit nothing. But given the situation, I don’t know how you could defend against hit-and-run, operating while intoxicated, and operating the UTV on a prohibited trail. Just like the victim, the driver doesn’t have a leg to stand on. Cooperating and being honest was probably a good idea.
Yes, but the victim likely waved him off because he had a phone to call 911. He doesn’t know the drunk men and doesn’t want to potentially “disappear” in the rural woods. While helpless, he did the safest thing by downplaying his injury until trusted help arrived.
That happening didn't surprise me since many quad bike / UTV drivers (except for people who actually need them) are idiots since they're very unsafe vehicles in the first place.
My adopted son got into an ATV accident while he was only 18... He died on impact... Him and his best friend were both drinking and riding ATV's on pavement... Please don't drink and drive any kind of vehicle while driving, you never know what the outcome could be... 😢
Some vehicles are ok when your drunk, like bumper cars. They're pretty much made for drunk driving. And remote controlled cars. They're a blast when drunk, as long as you're in a reasonable place. Row boats aren't too bad when you're drunk, ether. Just wear a life preserver.
I had a neighbor who was paralyzed because he was riding an ATV while drunk. He went over a hill too hard and flipped it and landed on his neck and the ATV landed on him. Instant fracture lifetime paralysis from the waist down. You're exactly right don't drink or drive *any* potentially dangerous vehicle and ATVs are on that list.
Exactly, what if the guy didn’t have a phone? He would’ve laid there all night especially since his ankle was broken & it was sooo dark & nobody uses that road at night. What a bunch of selfish idiots. They care more about not getting in trouble than another human’s life or wellbeing. Disgusting.
I'd have made sure the guy has a phone, given the guy a few hundred bucks then told him to wait ten minutes to call the police. And somehow I'm a nicer guy than this dude
The mixture of despicable behavior and humor in this video is awesome. Midwest Safety is my fav popo-stuff channel. Your frequent Wisconsin videos do make me think everyone there sucks the suds all day and night.😄
Thankfully, the victim had a phone and called 911. He also confirmed that the men did stop, spoke briefly, then drove off.

But without a phone, I would’ve had to take chances on the strangers helping me…rather than dying from exposure, as you imply.
@@leannemo7382the imagery in my mind is very comical. The guy about to ask for help, then he sees the chainsaw and just meekly dismisses them and lays down to die on the side of the road. Its not actually funny but if I saw it in a movie I'd def chuckle a little.
I mean, a broken ankle isn’t going to kill you most of the time. You’d die from dehydration or exposure before that. Since this seems like a fairly high traffic area (who goes for a run at night?) I’m fairly sure he would’ve been discovered before that happened. That’s not an excuse for his actions, but let’s not act like his whole body was run over. I’m just thinking like a judge who’s considering the sentence.
To me it seems like when they said he was passing out from pain he was probably nodding off from being on opiates. Why else would you be sleeping on a dark woodland bridge unless you were passed out from injecting opioids?
Sitting here two weeks postoperative ankle fracture. There's NO WAY the victim said everything's ok. Extremely painful and requires metal plates and screws to put you back together. Asshats left him there! They're worried about a tow fee and the poor guy probably won't be functional for a couple of months!
Agreed! I had a broken ankle (it wasn’t crushed like this guys) had to have plates and screws. Extremely painful and never got full recovery of range of motion in my ankle. Also expensive medical bills.
Could be shock, I've broken both legs, ribs, collar bone, it has never seemed like a big deal immediately after. Maybe that's just me, but in my experience broken bones don't really start hurting for about a half hour.
Kinda sketchy though. By himself after dark with two men. He must’ve trusted that they wouldn’t ambush him. I’ve seen many situations where the cop is left lying in the shoulder
I actually shook one’s hand after a speeding ticket and said thank you. 😂 I get nervous when I get pulled over, and he was super chill, so my words and actions were on super good behavior. 😂
They all seem nice, even the drunk guy (except for the little thing about the hit and run part). The cops were super nice, the nurse at the hospital too.

@15:00 "The driver is breathing hard. He is possibly stressed from the situation that is unfolding in front of him" LOL, He's stressed because he's thinking about what this is going to cost him.
He was clearly well trained and also applied his training expertly. He intentionally acts chummy and nonchalant to disarm the suspects, while being fully in control of the situation and the direction of the entire investigation. Well done, indeed.
It is to prove that the individual is in no condition to drive. It cuts off the "but my client has a very high tolerance and can easily maintain control of his vehicle even at that level of intoxication" argument.
exactly, these tests are unreliable in the best circumstances. here on an uneven trail I bet it would be completely invalid and is likely to be thrown out by a judge.
@@pap3rw8They conduct other reliable breath tests at the jail and or go to hospital and do a blood draw. Refusal gets you the same penalty as being drunk. In an injury accident they usually get a warrant for a blood draw.

Mumbling mustaches Batman, what a couple of 'winners'. Gotta love the part about 'I know I'm not supposed to ride here, but it's something I like to do'. He told the passenger he thought he saw a bear. I guess back then circuses had bears riding bikes...😁

About a month ago I broke my fibula, it’s above the ankle bone. Breaking anything near the foot and ankle is an *intense* pain. Enough to make you vomit. You go into shock. I could barely breathe let alone talk for the first 10 minutes. There’s absolutely no way they didn’t just ditch him. These guys are the scum of the earth. I hope he presses charges, it is *NOT* a cheap recovery.
I crushed my ankle over 20 years ago. Ruined my very active life. 3 surgeries plus 6 mons of pt. I can't ride a bike, run, surf or even squat etc. When you crush a joint there is no getting back to the way you used to be.
Can confirm, had a vertical fracture of the distal tibia, injuries like that make one realize how many moving parts an ankle has. It's on par with tooth pain.
@@acorn-i6m Can confirm. Had an incomplete vertical fracture of my distal tibia, it no longer has full freedom of motion. Healed wonky. This was years ago, and I remember it was miserable. Not as bad as a double fractured collar bone but yeah, miserable. I wish you a speedy recovery and please, PLEASE do not test it. When it feels good again, you baby that ankle for another two months. It can feel ok and not be ok, and it doesn't take much to fuck it up and end up with excessive scar tissue or other problems.
His use of “poop” instead of what most of us would say, makes him seem like a nice grandfatherly type. Leaving an injured person to die sure contradicts that. Most the Wisconsin drunks I have seen are combative and nearly impossible to get in cuffs. That was a nice change. Edit: spellcheck
I came across what I thought was a bag of rags laying in a busy street on the way to work at 5:00am what was the first day of school. Nope it was a teen who had been hit by a car. He was badly injured with a compound fracture of his lower leg. I blocked the scene with my vehicle and called 911. He told me the driver who hit him backed up and said "you'll be OK" and drove off. He kept trying to get up so he could find his skateboard that was precious to him . Finally others stopped to help and block the road further, I found his skateboard and shoe about 50 yards away. and gave it to him to help calm him as thee was no way he could walk on that leg. About a 2-3 minute response time from Station 77 , Paramedic Ambulance & EMS Battalion Captain, evaluated him, packaged him and transported him to a level 1 trauma center at a local Hospital. Don't know what happened to him or if any investigation ever happened. Welcome to Los Angeles
Having lived in SoCal for 22 years, I guarantee it’s worse here in Wisconsin, and was way worse when I first moved here several years ago. My insurance rates tripled because of drunk drivers, even though I drove less than 100 miles weekly here (I obviously drove way more than that in SoCal 😂). When I finally stopped driving due to disability (progressive terminal neurological disorder), my premiums on a 20 yo Suburban driven less than 6,000 miles per year were $3,600 just for state minimums. This despite being a former driving instructor (semis) with over 1.6 million safe miles (no tickets or preventable wrecks).

So, this is how a pleasant person gets arrested. Still arrested, but cuffed in the front, no yelling, and never a threat of going to the ground. While not ideal for him, this is, by far, the best way to handle getting locked up

Shame on this driver not only for his actions that night, but then having the temerity to plead not guilty when all this is on camera AND they had to get a warrant to test his blood. Now all this time and effort has to be put into a trial. I hope the injured cyclist has filed the appropriate lawsuits against this drunk driver either in criminal or civil court, because he needs to be made as close to whole as possible. Ankle injuries and breaks can be brutal with long-lasting limitations on mobility.
Right now (or a few months ago, given that the trial date has passed), the defense attorney and the prosecutor are working out a plea deal. I doubt this went to trial. That’s the game: hit the defendant with maximal charges so you can knock off some charges for a guilty plea. The defense is thinking about the penalties and how to minimize them. The number of charges is not as important because the penalties (jail time) usually run concurrently. This case is going to be tough on the defense, because everything seems pretty clew cut.
@@de7403 Nay I am a gun toting, military retiree that has never voted blue. With that said, I have compassion and kindness for a fellow human. What’s your excuse?

I'd love to have a few cops try the drunk tests on sober people and see how they do. It would need to be a cop, because their presence can make one unsteady.
You are not required to do field sobriety tests. In fact many lawyers have advised against doing them because cops will use them to try and prove you were impaired, even if you weren't. If you are sure you are sober you should immediately request to do a breath, urine or blood test and skip field sobrietys as to not implicate yourself by any perceived missteps by the officers.
@@petrichorsdreamin Tn if you refuse field sobriety test the next step is being taken to a hospital/EMS to get blood test. If you refuse either you’re charged with DUI or whatever it is automatically. I had a dui and I refused field test but when instructed by my lawyer on phone at jail he said you either do the blood test or you’re viewed as guilty, I did. I still beat it. Bc blood test can take months to process so if your lawyer is good they will do whatever they can for a fast process to settle/get it thrown out BEFORE the blood results get back.

@AlWorth9738 Because cyclists can be intolerably arrogant, like motorcyclists. I say this as both a cyclist and motorcyclist. TroisKayas is on point. You gotta check your behavior too. Pedaling your way on 2 wheels doesn't automatically make you better than "just about" everyone else nor award you special authority over the highway. The pigheadedness involved in riding side by side to intentionally block traffic simply because "we're here and ain't moving!" is akin to brake checking, except it's a hell of a lot more dangerous outside of the suburbs. It's the sort of thing that gets us killed. I almost plowed through a couple taking a Sunday ride on a rural road doing this very thing as I was coming around a blind corner while taking a Sunday drive in my truck. This is why we are, contrary to popular belief, legally obligated to pull over to the side and allow faster traffic to pass regardless what we're driving or riding. Your kids can't play in the middle of the road and neither can you. Impeding traffic is extremely dangerous and illegal. Just as dangerous as not giving a cyclist ample room while passing after the smart ones move out of the way. Be aware, be courteous, be respectful, be decent, be safe. Don't be an ass. It has a price on the road.
@AlWorth9738 I wish more cyclists would follow traffic laws, if you're on the road it doesn't matter if you're on a bicycle, a motorcycle, a golf cart or whatever, you still need to signal turns, stop at red lights/stop signs, yield, etc. I also really don't like it when a cyclist is riding at night and they're wearing dark clothes with no high-viz clothing or anything or even no reflectors at all, I've had it happen before where there was a guy riding right down the middle of a state route at night, no streetlights at all wearing a black hoodie and all of his reflectors were busted, the only reason I saw him in time was because the moon was full that night and I could see his shadow. Like c'mon dude I don't want to run you over at least put on a bright colored hat/helmet.
Who fucking bicycles in the dark past midnight on a walking trail? His bike didn't belong there either. Looks like a bloody hobo to me. No sympathy for the drunk driver and very little for the cyclist. Two idiots playing dumbass games in the dark.
Also don't let the kids drive please we lost two young boys in our neighborhood that way, they're not safe for kids. "States with the most ATV-related deaths from 1982 to 2014 were Texas (773), Pennsylvania (702), West Virginia (698), California (694) and Kentucky (629)" We live in Texas.
It's so refreshing to see the person "guilty" is polite and honest even though he hesitated a couple of times. And it's nice to see an officer being able to show that he's human and just like the rest of us. Being able to listen to the radio of the music he likes while on duty is great. I always wondered what they do while cruising around and no emergencies.

Definitely, a similar thing happened to me a few months ago when someone ran a stop sign and hit me while riding my bike. You are in shock to try and relieve your body from pain that you cant think straight.
He was acting weird after telling me I drove over his foot, so I left 🥴
Driver & victim, drunk.
I can see where you are coming from but I have seen drunk or intoxicated patients walk into the ER (we call it ED, emergency department) with breaks to lower extremities. To say they do not feel pain would be an exaggeration, indeed most felt plenty of pain but they ambulated well enough but every one of them were surprised that they had actually broken something. The victim in this case was not sober and may well of indicated that he was okay. I would not personally have left it at that (having said that I would not be driving drunk) He did leave him wrongly but it was bad judgment as was his decision to drive. I don’t think it was a malicious act to leave him. As for the drink driving I do not feel the penalties are strong enough it should carry the same penalties as involuntary attempt at man slaughter.

The drunk guy said he stopped. According to the cop that was injured guy, he was on the verge of passing out from pain. I don't think that the other guys ever stopped. The guy with the crushed ankle would have been in a world of pain and in need of an ambulance!! Pretty scary place to be helpless in the dark!
Both the driver and the victim said he stopped, so I believe that. He stopped for a moment and went "are you okay?" victim obviously wasn't, driver knew how much s**t he'd be in, left the scene and the victim in the hope he'd get away and not be identified. So still classed as a hit and run, and a massive, tower sized DI*k move! He didn't care about leaving the victim out there with a crushed ankle and foot. I'm sure he was also worried about having to pay for the mans medical care. So he stopped briefly, then took off, according to the victim and the driver.
Yes. Dark dirt road in the woods, only thing missing is thunder and rain, and we have a cheap horror flick.
Dump of adrenaline when you think you're going to die will keep you from feeling anything. got in a BAD motorcycle accident, got right back up, walked off the side of the road, and was more concerned about my bike than really hurting, just felt kinda bumped up. it wasn't until i tried to unbuckle my helmet and couldn't move my fingers that i realized i'd shattered my hand. Turns out i shattered my hand, shoulder, and fractured both of my heels from hitting the ground so hard.
No, the victim confirmed that the men did stop, spoke briefly, then drove off. While mustache driver feared being caught driving drunk on a “no ATVs” trail, the helpless victim may have, understandably, been *very afraid of the two men.* He’s severely hobbled and on a dark, rural trail and might’ve feared being killed and dumped in the woods by two large, intoxicated men…to never be seen again. It’s possible that he also noticed the chainsaw in the back of ATV (mentioned by the driver to officer). 😧
If injured and fearful, I may have acted similarly since there were *NO witnesses around.* I would’ve tried smiling and waving them on, to then call 911 after they were out of sight. In the days without mobile phones, this helpless victim would’ve needed to take his chances with two strangers who are already breaking laws and have the upper hand…in remote country woods. 😬
@@Mike.The.Jeweler Damn. Nearly the same thing happened to me. T-Boned by a left turner. I ripped my arm out of socket and fractured the top of my humerus. It took 15 minutes for me to realize that after the accident, when.. like you, I tried to take my jacket off.

Gotta be fair, it was refreshing to hear. I get why he wouldn’t admit he was intoxicated, though.
Any lawyer will tell you to say nothing and admit nothing. But given the situation, I don’t know how you could defend against hit-and-run, operating while intoxicated, and operating the UTV on a prohibited trail. Just like the victim, the driver doesn’t have a leg to stand on. Cooperating and being honest was probably a good idea.

If they would have remained at the scene they would have still been arrested but that act would show compassion. If you screw up, own it.
Not just that..... no charges for fleeing the scene of an accident with injuries. In PA that's a felony.
Yes, but the victim likely waved him off because he had a phone to call 911. He doesn’t know the drunk men and doesn’t want to potentially “disappear” in the rural woods. While helpless, he did the safest thing by downplaying his injury until trusted help arrived.
Would’ve halved the charges at least
I am liking the extra dialogue at the end of recent vids giving context to some of the events and charges. Thanks.
Imagine hiking or biking on a non-motorized vehicle only trail, and getting smashed by a couple of idiots in a UTV.
That happening didn't surprise me since many quad bike / UTV drivers (except for people who actually need them) are idiots since they're very unsafe vehicles in the first place.
I can't because I would never be riding a bike through the woods at night....very stupid move on the cyclist's part

I mean, a broken ankle isn’t going to kill you most of the time. You’d die from dehydration or exposure before that. Since this seems like a fairly high traffic area (who goes for a run at night?) I’m fairly sure he would’ve been discovered before that happened. That’s not an excuse for his actions, but let’s not act like his whole body was run over. I’m just thinking like a judge who’s considering the sentence.
Abandoned someone who is clearly in severe pain. Heartless
Probably also illegal. I think that a Judge is going to light him up.
To me it seems like when they said he was passing out from pain he was probably nodding off from being on opiates. Why else would you be sleeping on a dark woodland bridge unless you were passed out from injecting opioids?

I used wonder how all these old people worked for the DNR and there’s not actually that many DNR jobs. 😂😂😂…when someone would say “this person is DNR”. I’d be like “well i think it’s time they hang it up”. Always wondered why they looked at me so weird
No the video said they were most likely referring to the department of natural resources for a warden officer who knows the rules of a park better than the Average cop @@ShapesWithoutColors
@@ShapesWithoutColorsdnr is department of natural resources
My oldest son is a DNR warden up in Kewanee Count Wisconsin. He loves it

@stephanieschneider7623 grammar nazi much?
So, this is how a pleasant person gets arrested. Still arrested, but cuffed in the front, no yelling, and never a threat of going to the ground.
While not ideal for him, this is, by far, the best way to handle getting locked up
"Pleasant"?? 😅
He ran over a person!
@@HectoradrianMartinez-pq8tk correct; he treated everyone with respect during the interaction and was never hostile.
That doesn’t take away from the fact that he was drunk and injured someone. But watch 10 other videos of a drunk person being arrested and try to convince me that this wasn’t the most pleasant arrest out of the lot.
I suppose he is the right colour to be a lying drunk...
@ huh?
there is something about the absolute dichotomy of a police officer listening to rap that contains anti-police sentiment. gets me every time
Especially when that cop looked whiter than a grain of rice in a snowstorm
Shame on this driver not only for his actions that night, but then having the temerity to plead not guilty when all this is on camera AND they had to get a warrant to test his blood. Now all this time and effort has to be put into a trial. I hope the injured cyclist has filed the appropriate lawsuits against this drunk driver either in criminal or civil court, because he needs to be made as close to whole as possible. Ankle injuries and breaks can be brutal with long-lasting limitations on mobility.
I don’t think you know how this works
Just kinda looked up words and try to make them go together eh?
Pleading not guilty doesn't mean you're pleading innocence.
Right now (or a few months ago, given that the trial date has passed), the defense attorney and the prosecutor are working out a plea deal. I doubt this went to trial.
That’s the game: hit the defendant with maximal charges so you can knock off some charges for a guilty plea. The defense is thinking about the penalties and how to minimize them. The number of charges is not as important because the penalties (jail time) usually run concurrently. This case is going to be tough on the defense, because everything seems pretty clew cut.
WOW That's a lot of charges for that accident. I hope the cyclist has recovered and his bike repaired. Good video.
Seems like exactly the right amount of charges
@@de7403 Nay I am a gun toting, military retiree that has never voted blue. With that said, I have compassion and kindness for a fellow human. What’s your excuse?
Man there was two of them too. One could have stayed with the injured man while the other went home. Imagine if he didn't have a phone
They were drunk and knew it.....they left to avoid the out charges.
@jimlacefield7176 yeah but one guy could have stayed and claimed he didn't know the driver
That heartless man left that cyclist on the side of the road in agony after hitting him and he actually had the nerve to complain about the simplest things while being arrested. I don't think he is a very good person at all.
Why was the cyclist sitting on the road?
@@misguidedangel6550 he couldn't walk after they struck him.
@@misguidedangel6550the sidebyside isn't even allowed to be on that trail
I was waiting for him to say "I wasn't driving!! I was traveling! Where is the injured party?? He's not here! How do I know this alleged cyclist even exists? You don't have jurisdiction!!""
SovCits are just the best aren't they?
Surprise sovereign citizen reveal
I was to but i quickly noticed his hair was not multi colored and no indication of a hog ring in his nose
I really appreciate the professionalism these officers displayed throughout the entire encounter. It's hard when you know the person hurt someone and then left the scene.
Homeless dude sleeping on the bridge?? That’s why you don’t drink and drive even if you didn’t do shit, you are screwed if something happens
I really appreciate the (i assume?) owner of the channel stepping in towards the end for that message. Most of these body cam channels feel like impersonal content fountains or even ai generated. Midwest saftey is def the best out there!
Midwest safety voice IS AI
@@Omer_Sastim_is_turtle_bot did you even watch the video before you decided to pipe up? i was referring to the video of the owner at the end. it’s also obvious at the very least that his scripts aren’t ai. also big whoop? youtubers have been using text to speech for YEARS.
props to the officer for being kind and respectful the entire process.
Imagine listening "Fuck the police" while you are the police 😂😂
A lot of do, its a good song.
They are not known for intelligence or self awareness. Even the ones we othewise seeing do n ok job. What ws any one of these officers up to last week I wonder. Kinda how it works. We see the cool video, we don't see the previous 714 complaints, assault allegations, etc,
@@CharagrinQUESTION: What is *MORE* “newsworthy”, good cops doing their jobs or bad cops doing wrong?
@@Charagrin yea I'm a cop, last week I was working and while i was off I spent time with my family. Not sure what you were implying but the only cops I know that have done illegal shit have gotten fired for it.
Its a mating call.
Consider that they tested his BAC 2 hours later and it was still over the legal limit. Imagine how high it was at the time of the incident.
Utv drunk? Mental? Passenger also should be charged for failing to report crime.
Then they would have to prove that he knew a crime was committed. It would be next to impossible if he's saying he didn't see anything and the other guy said it was a bear.
@@Uncle_n00bthe guy did say they stopped and asked how he was doing before driving off so the passenger would have known what was going on at that point I believe, idk how any of the legal stuff would work but they both did acknowledge seeing and talking to the man
You don't have a requirement or duty to report a crime.
Passengers are rarely charged as they usually have no control over the vehicle and unless you are the one who caused this “accident” you aren’t required to report a crime even as the passenger
@@Kennarosewhere are you people getting this? The passenger said that he thought it was a board and said the driver said he thought he saw a bear! The guys left that person to die in the middle of nowhere
I just tried the heel to toe steps in my kitchen completely sober - hope I never get asked to do that lol😂
I'd love to have a few cops try the drunk tests on sober people and see how they do. It would need to be a cop, because their presence can make one unsteady.
It's basically a scam to get a blood test or a blow as it is a subjective test. Many sober people would fail that test for many reasons.
You are not required to do field sobriety tests. In fact many lawyers have advised against doing them because cops will use them to try and prove you were impaired, even if you weren't. If you are sure you are sober you should immediately request to do a breath, urine or blood test and skip field sobrietys as to not implicate yourself by any perceived missteps by the officers.
@@petrichorsdreamin Tn if you refuse field sobriety test the next step is being taken to a hospital/EMS to get blood test. If you refuse either you’re charged with DUI or whatever it is automatically. I had a dui and I refused field test but when instructed by my lawyer on phone at jail he said you either do the blood test or you’re viewed as guilty, I did. I still beat it. Bc blood test can take months to process so if your lawyer is good they will do whatever they can for a fast process to settle/get it thrown out BEFORE the blood results get back. Mine was august and court was October and the blood wasn’t back yet from the state. It’s not a CSI type shit where it’s here tomorrow. You’re in a long line of mofo’s lol
@@HereForVideosNice to know drunk drivers are able to beat the system. 🙄
Yes-- tell your story again for the 3rd time in ten minutes, as if it gets more effective that way 🙄
That game warden chill af
damn they hit him with every charge they could lmfao. bet he wont do that again
🤷♀️ till next time.
bet he will, it’s wisconsin 😩
Dude has no concern for the cyclist he hit.
@AlWorth9738 A combination of inexperience, lack of education, and the selfishness perpetuated by the individualism that car ownership encourages
@AlWorth9738 Because cyclists can be intolerably arrogant, like motorcyclists. I say this as both a cyclist and motorcyclist. TroisKayas is on point. You gotta check your behavior too. Pedaling your way on 2 wheels doesn't automatically make you better than "just about" everyone else nor award you special authority over the highway. The pigheadedness involved in riding side by side to intentionally block traffic simply because "we're here and ain't moving!" is akin to brake checking, except it's a hell of a lot more dangerous outside of the suburbs. It's the sort of thing that gets us killed. I almost plowed through a couple taking a Sunday ride on a rural road doing this very thing as I was coming around a blind corner while taking a Sunday drive in my truck. This is why we are, contrary to popular belief, legally obligated to pull over to the side and allow faster traffic to pass regardless what we're driving or riding. Your kids can't play in the middle of the road and neither can you. Impeding traffic is extremely dangerous and illegal. Just as dangerous as not giving a cyclist ample room while passing after the smart ones move out of the way. Be aware, be courteous, be respectful, be decent, be safe. Don't be an ass. It has a price on the road.
@@TroisKayas Yup! This right here. They bring it on themselves. Get out of the way. Arrogant m'fers
@AlWorth9738 I wish more cyclists would follow traffic laws, if you're on the road it doesn't matter if you're on a bicycle, a motorcycle, a golf cart or whatever, you still need to signal turns, stop at red lights/stop signs, yield, etc. I also really don't like it when a cyclist is riding at night and they're wearing dark clothes with no high-viz clothing or anything or even no reflectors at all, I've had it happen before where there was a guy riding right down the middle of a state route at night, no streetlights at all wearing a black hoodie and all of his reflectors were busted, the only reason I saw him in time was because the moon was full that night and I could see his shadow. Like c'mon dude I don't want to run you over at least put on a bright colored hat/helmet.
Who fucking bicycles in the dark past midnight on a walking trail? His bike didn't belong there either. Looks like a bloody hobo to me. No sympathy for the drunk driver and very little for the cyclist. Two idiots playing dumbass games in the dark.

Also don't let the kids drive please we lost two young boys in our neighborhood that way, they're not safe for kids. "States with the most ATV-related deaths from 1982 to 2014 were Texas (773), Pennsylvania (702), West Virginia (698), California (694) and Kentucky (629)"
We live in Texas.
@@Tylwaa get them dirtbikes instead. They are a lot safer than ATVs
It's so refreshing to see the person "guilty" is polite and honest even though he hesitated a couple of times. And it's nice to see an officer being able to show that he's human and just like the rest of us. Being able to listen to the radio of the music he likes while on duty is great. I always wondered what they do while cruising around and no emergencies.
Honest? Left the scene and lied to coppers. So sweet
