Tracting leads to possible arrest

This isn't much of a witnessing story, but it is somewhat humorous, and who knows how it will end up.

My wife and I were on our 18th anniversary trip yesterday. We were stopped getting gas and the pump across from us has an older pickup truck with a very drunk woman in the bed of the truck sipping on an open container of some sort of hard liquer. As I approched the truck I saw two other people in the cab in addition to the driver who was in the store picking up more alcohol.

I handed them all $7.00 bills and the drunk woman kept repeating how much she loved me.... so I headed back to finish pumping gas and head out.

That would have been the end of the story, however the truck pulled out on the mountain road directly ahead of me. As my wife and I thought of them potential danger, not only of HELL but also of DUI, killing someone else on the road etc. we passed a Hwy Patrol vehicle on the side of the road. My wife (somewhat joking) said, "hey, you should pull over and report them". That was all it took. Moments later the officer (who was wiping lunch off his face when I approched the vehicle) was speeding down the road in search of the truck.

The best part (I guess) is that we were on twisting mountain roads with really no way of exiting. As we were driving and wondering if we'd ever learn the end of the story, about 3 miles down the road, we caught up with the police officer and the truck.

Short end of the story is, we passed by them as they were being pulled off into a Circle K and I'm sure, shaking in their boots.

It isn't often that kind of thing works out so perfectly. I just pray that when they sober up (whether than ends up being in jail, or wherever) that they still have the tracts with them and put 2 & 2 together and repent.

The LAW is a funny thing sometimes.
