whether to report dh for drink driving right now?

[steakandmantoo]

I can't even believe I'm in this predicament. DH is a bus driver, so driving is his job, what supports us.

he has came home drunk a few times, where he has drove home, and I've been angry, and warned him to not do it again.

He just popped back now to drop me some food off, and I smelt vodka, his eyes looked red, and his cousin is in the car, drunk also. He flat out denied it, and said I'm imagining things, and then he went back to his car and drove off.

I'm really worried about him killing himself and cousin, and other people. But if I report him, and the police catch him, that means his jobs gone, and we would be left broke with no income?

I just don't know what to do to make sure he never does this again.

He and cousin need to come clean, otherwise they are looking at attempting to pervert the course of justice and that is jail time

Unless they actively lied under caution or made a statement knowing it to be false (which it sounds like neither did) this is absolute nonsense. And yeah to echo a PP, we have to see the driver driving or in control of the vehicle (although that's a different offence) I've been known to hide behind petrol pumps watching them stumble back across the forecourt, wait for the keys to go in the ignition and pounce. Because that's the offence complete, without that there is no evidence and no offence. You would even struggle with CCTV.
Anyway, hopefully this gave him a fright.

Should add you are as guilty as him if he kills someone as you know and decided to put yourself first over others safety

I take it this was the idiotic rp30? What a load of rubbish.

OP, are you ok - does your DH know you reported him?

Was going to ask the same thing.. has he said anything?

Very brave person

I know way too many who do this every weekend without a morsel of remorse

Thank you for doing this

how i your relationship op.you seem to be staying with this man so is the rest of you and him ok?

You are incredibly brave OP.

I hope he learns something from this. I really do.

He sounds very immature and an absolute fool for thinking nothing could happen. Unfortunately, I know first hand what can happen through drink driving.

for you

Are you safe op?

Vicky Price and Chris Hulme? I know that wasn't drink driving but there wasn't a lot of corroborating evidence.

OP

Hope you are OK and know that you did the right thing.

@sashh no idea what you're talking about.

You did the right thing OP. I was hit by a drunk driver - my car looked like a concertina afterwards and I was lucky to get out with just cuts and bruises. I couldn’t lift my arms for a week or so but it affected me mentally for over a year.
