I hope they’re ok

If it’s a maroonish purple car with a male drive, this guy is always driving around under the influence. Today he ran a red light at Southwest & Broadway. He almost hit me. He’s also been passed out behind the wheel at a light on Broadway as well. I called the police on that one but couldn’t get to him due to traffic. This is sad.

They need to have the cops deviating the cars off and doing a turn right there at the traffic light. All they have have to do is get right back on I71
