I managed to draw alongside the vehicle and spotted a young female, face to face with and straddling the driver. I leave it to your imagination to work out what they were up to, needless to say the driver looked ecstatic until I pulled him over and breathalysed him. He was a married man and the girl was his baby sitter whom he had volunteered to take home. He was also well over the drink/drive limit and subsequently imprisoned for 6-months and banned from driving for 2-years. His wife began divorce proceedings whilst he was inside.
It's people like you that ruin married life.
