So what the hell was his deal? Was it illegal drugs or did he have a medical condition? It looked like he could have been in a lot of pain and OD'd on prescription meds.

Looks almost like he has a REALLY bad case of narcolepsy.

not sure what his deal was, but i doubt it was a legit medical condition. By the way he is trying to play off that he is fine and doesnt want to tell the cops what he was on, I would guess he took way to many drugs

seems like he took too much of whatever he took. He's definitely not having a good trip at all...sucks for him. Id say he's either on molly or some good x haha. He said he was coming from a rave.

Those cops are complete asshats for letting him fall more than once, they just stood there the first 3 times he fell. What the hell?

So the cops are the bad guys here... I really dont see how. They kept telling him to sit down, and tried to keep him sitting on the ground where he wouldnt fall. As for the fisrt few times he fell, I would imagine they were a little suprised/dumbfounded by his condition. Serves that guy right for getting behind the wheel in that condition in the first place. I dont know about you but I wouldnt be to quick to throw my arm around some crazy drugged up stranger to keep him from falling when he hasnt even been frisked yet.

I agree that guy could have killed your family driving in that condition... I say let him fall some more but on his head... Then haul is drunk *** to jail...

I believe that was alcohol, as he was fading in an out, couldn't keep his balance.. Spinning... I would have tasered him a couple of times to wake his **** up...

So you're telling me if that person was someone you cared about and 2 cops just watched as he fell 3 or 4 times and did nothing. After the first time they should have had him sitting on the ground and not moving.

Frisked yet? That guy could have any amount of weapons he liked and wouldn't be able to do anything with them, he could barely move. Surely 2 trained officers can handle one person with zero equilibrium. I just don't see how letting someone hit their head that much relates to 'Protect and Serve'.

Those cops requested he go to the hospital rather then straight to prison to sober up... That is being extremely nice, and also how many times did the officers tell him to sit down?...

Really what more could they have done? Trust, I think you are off on this one...

If someone I cared about did that, then let him or her get hurt and maybe they won't do it again... It's called tough love... The guy may get a few bruises, badly sprained ankle but won't die regardless...
