With Kids in Car, Man Causes DWI Multi-Car Accident, Hits Pedestrian

2008_07_sidwi.jpgA man who was allegedly drunk crashed on Hylan Boulevard between Bryant and Bancroft Avenues during rush hour. With his kids in the minivan, the Staten Island Advance reports the driver "lost control" and "hit...a Verizon FIOS employees...sending his shoes and clipboard sailing through the air." Then the van "veered into the opposite lanes and hit a blue 2005 Mazda sedan head-on, which slammed into a black 2008 Jeep Grand Cherokee Laredo sport utility vehicle." And the minivan also hit a light pole. Between six and eight passengers from the minivan and Mazda were taken to the hospital, while the Verizon employee is in serious condition.

Stupid fuckwit. His kids should be taken away from him.

I hope the Verizon employee makes a speedy recovery. He needs to get back to work rolling out that FIOS.

His kids should be taken away from him.

The only problem with that is given ACS' record, they may not be better off.

Never mind the kids, the dude should go to fucking prison.

He then leaped from the vehicle, took a bow, and proclaimed "The Aristocrats!"

Did they find that poor Verizon employee's nerdy glasses? Seriously, this guy is an absolute menace and needs to be behind locked doors for a very long time. Hopefully those kids have a mother. They obviously had no father.
