Am I a grass, or was it justified?
Discussion
I've always considered myself one of those who works on the basis of not grassing on others,or involving myself in others business.
However today I faced a bit of a dilemma.
I was sitting in my lounge mid-afternoon and heard a car accelerating pretty hard and then a major bang and some scraping noises. Had a look outside and there's a fairly new car in the middle of the road with one front wheel pointing at 90 degrees to the rest of the car and a confused looking girl getting out of the car.
Went outside and "looking confused" morphed into s
tfaced.
The trail of destruction was quite impressive, she hit a kerb (no idea how!), demolished a large swathe of my garden and then came to rest back on the road, narrowly missing a couple and their young son in a car travelling in the opposite direction.
I didn't hesitate calling plod. So does this make me a grass?
Fixing the destruction is my home insurers probelm and they can easily recover it from her insurers, so money isn't a good enough reason for grassing either.
Nearly forgot. She wasn't that fit, I'd probably have shagged her if I was stuck on my own at 3.30am on a drunken night out, but wouldn't tell my mates, so nothing special. Backdoors would've been fair game (as always). No piccies, as plod were on the scene quickly and I was more interested in making sure she didn't leg it.

Thanks for the comments, guess I was right to do it then.

Good job!
even if she wasn't pissed, driving without due care & attention or similar would still be a valid reason to call plod (she crashed) IMO.
I wouldn't have bothered if she wasn't pissed. We all make mistakes and her insurance would've jumped in cost anyay, no need to exacerbate it with a load of points.even if she wasn't pissed, driving without due care & attention or similar would still be a valid reason to call plod (she crashed) IMO.

If nothing else, she's damaged your property. Enough to report her IMOGassing Station | General Gassing | Top of Page | What's New | My Stuff
