Woman calls 911 to report herself as drunk driver

(AP) – 19 hours ago

NEILSVILLE, Wis. — The call came into the 911 dispatcher: "I don't want to hurt anybody. I'm drunk." And with that, Mary Strey, 49, of Granton, reported herself as a drunken driver about three miles northeast of Neilsville in central Wisconsin.

Clark County Sheriff's Chief Deputy Jim Backus said Monday that Strey's call on Oct. 24 led deputies to cite her for misdemeanor drunken driving with a blood-alcohol level double the legal limit to drive. She makes her first court appearance Dec. 10.

Backus said drunken drivers reporting themselves is rare.

In the 911 call, Strey said she wanted to report a drunken driver and the dispatcher asked if she was behind the suspect vehicle. "I am them," Strey said. She then followed the dispatcher's advice to pull over and turn on her flashers, telling him she had been "drinking all night long."

It was unclear if Strey has hired an attorney yet.

I'd say awesome. This lady was (albeit retarded) aware enough to realize she was a danger and did something about it. I think a lot of people can agree that the most dangerous attitude behind the wheel is "I can handle this, no problem"

That's almost as bad as if you were a star quarterback, went into retirement to quit your team, then joined the rival team a year later and beat your old team.

HAHAHAHAHAHA

Yeah, I thought that too... but I can't quite decide if you get credit for doing the right thing when you are drunk.

I guess part of her wanted her to be held accountable for her actions, though, and that part got through, so that is good. She could have just called a friend to come take her home with no repercussions.

You think?

No, that is just awesome! Even if we lose we win, becuase Green Bay fans are soooooo angry.

Agreed, but I think what will speak more to her integrity is if and how she defends herself against the misdemeanor charges after the fact. If I were a judge (completely not following judicial precedent), I suppose I might let her go if she were honest and apologetic. Perhaps she should suggest community service for herself while she's at it? Then enter a monastery.

why not just call a cab instead or calling 911/police?

WTF ?? !! why not just call a cab instead or calling 911/police?

You may have missed this detail, but she was drunk at the time she made that call

You got that right, the militant Packers fans in WI are still losing their minds about this. Personally, I don't give a rat's ass about football, so I rather enjoy listening to their ridiculous meltdowns.

Not funny. Although, Brent looked pretty darn good out there for an old guy. I am hoping for a third meeting.

Any we cant thank him enough!!! Go Vikes!

Third meeting?! You really want to lose AGAIN?!??! I would think getting a smackdown by your old boy twice in one month would be good enough but OK! I hope the Packers can somehow make the playoffs and play the Vikes again so Brett can do it all over again!

If anyone here had ever been to Neilsville..this story would make perfect sense to you.

you know the vikes will choke if they get to the playoffs..no matter who the quaterback. That's what your team does

What happens if you do this after you make it home?

PS: Favre is a douche and Aaron Rodgers is a better QB. Pity the guy has no OL to speak of. Glad my boy Percy Harvin is on his way to RotY though.

Just give me an easy life, and a peaceful death.

Normally I'd agree. But now we have your QB and we'll be just fine. This is our year.

Oh and there is no IF they make the playoffs. They've just about got the division wrapped up already.

right...he's done so good for the packers in the playoffs

Funny how all the Packer lovers all think he sucked NOW. When he was there? Not so much.

OK, back on topic....well...sorta.

Why does this not surprise me that this happened in Wisconsin?

I never drank the favre koolaid
he was fun to watch...but that guy could disappoint when you needed him most...
you'll see

You just described my sister....
