Here is a Scenario, Someone you know tweets about their mother driving them to the shops whilst drunk.
1. Would you report it.
2. Would you do it anonymous. Edit Achem
3. How would you do number 2.
4. have a quiet word.
5. You can't stand the mother.
Sorry, but,
anomalously
😆
I will answer this in a minute when my fit of giggles is finished.
I would do it amorously. Every time.
How would you do number 2
Through a ghost?
4 if a one off unless 5 applies then 1, maybe 2, 3 Crimestoppers.
I'd definately do it apoplectically.
I think it's the OP that's drunk.
😳 yeah my spelling and grammar are crap!
6, why would you tweet that??
3. How would you do a number 2? [url=http://]Wild of course![/url]
I'm sure it will be fine.
I rode my tandem back from a festival on Saturday night and I don't even remember doing it 😯

That's in Germany, isn't it?
Shit still can't spell even after looking it up.
I've done it to my sister (constantly driving paralytic). Told them car type and reg, brief description of driver (other people had access to the car too), and dates/times/locations they'd catch her. I gave the info anonymously via e-mail (so not THAT anonymously).
Unfortunately she crashed into someone before they got to her, thankfully no one hurt but both vehicles totalled.
If you know someone drives pissed, you have a responsibility to report it. When they eventually crash into something, that something might be someone you love.
I'm sure it will be fine.

Not a crime anyway! 😉
Thanks TuckerUK the relief to get a proper answer 🙂
No dondon, that's a German clearing his throat.
Got to drive pissed in the sticks ,no taxis but luckily no coppers either and all the farmers are in bed cos they milk at 4 am so no one to hit ,unless its a pissed farmer going to work 😉

That's horrendous, where do you live that has people who force you to drive pissed?
The Tweet could be a load of bollocks by the pathetic teenage daughter who can be prone to tweet stupid comments, yet the mother has a history of driving after a few large wines. 😕
I'd do it apocalyptically.

can you retweet it to the police?
I've done it to my sister
haven't we all.

Thought she was looking a bit ragged!

Didn't we all?
I'd just like to add (I've no idea why), that I'm no tea-totaling angel myself, with two DDs to my name as a lad, one of which happened whilst on the first ban! But driving when incapable of walking, as some do, is not on.

Oh, if only you knew! Many a true word spoken in jest!

Then if it's bollocks, she'll be asked to provide a roadside breath sample, then get to go home if she blows under. The experience of being stopped by the Police may be enough to give her a kick up the arse. Job done & no harm done.
Is this the pissed up, tube on strike version of Mornington Crescent?
Sounds like he's doing it apocryphaly.
flippinheckler - yes, quick call to local police station.
too bad if there happens to be a cyclist or pedestrian in the way... perhaps someone else wandering home from the pub or the hills who gets in the way.Got to drive pissed in the sticks ,no taxis but luckily no coppers either and all the farmers are in bed cos they milk at 4 am so no one to hit ,unless its a pissed farmer going to work
Ehh... Road Traffic Act 1988 s.30(1) - would need to check but I think max fine is £2500.tuckerUK: Not a crime anyway!

It's been tested, does not cover pedal cycles. IIRC of course.
Having just checked I think an offence is only commited when a rider is drunk to the point of being dangerous, drink drive rules don't apply. So yes, it could well be illegal.
