Did you see anybody get out of it? I was still sitting in it. It's the same thing for this white sedan that's sitting at a gas pump and the car that's next to it. What gas station? The Murphy's. And then... I'll sit on O-Trano to where I can see the O-Trano exit. Like, get on Rivers near Melnick. Or towards, like, flight. They got to come out. Yeah, no, we're completely out of the site. I'm on foot pretty much just looking at it from the Teoble parking lot from behind the gas station. It saw all of the sitting at the traffic light intersection, and it pulled up to a gas pump, and I guess it saw us, and nobody got out. It's still sitting there. (name withheld). if you want to come up here, both these cars are weaving back and forth? Can you see if we develop some PC? Copy, I recognize it. 10-4[2]. I'm going to take the rear car. I haven't seen any PC on the front. I mean, we could. I mean, we got that sedan, and then this white sedan that's got dark tan winters line that's pulled away from it there. It's still sitting here, and it's pulled up, and nobody's got out of it either. God, if you want me to stop with you or follow the front one? Try to follow this front one. It looks like a red in color north on number two lane. You have a careful potential contract in the park and I like that because you don't have reason for any stops since I'm on private property and they don't have to engage. Yeah, they're going to run it down. So you run the risk of just blowing everything. We're too late on the range from how I can see. I didn't see any PC on it. I just noticed they were both kind of weaving back and forth simultaneously when I went over the bridge. Just have the one leaving now? Negative. All right, I'm about to revert. I'm hit a roll through there just to get the tags. Okay, sir. You're like, Troll 3152. Carlson, F53. J-42[1]. 5-3, Judge, your copy, J-42. I sent from 1014 to your email. All right, let's take your favor. Screw it. You're having sure ones. Thank you. I wouldn't call it for them. If they're waiting you out, they're waiting you out for a reason. Man, they're just sleeping. Lift driver. Have they got closed? Why didn't need a second for that? You smell the alcohol coming from the car. It's 2 o'clock, bar closed, and the guy just did a drop-off. Oh, there's no passengers. 34, working a refusal, we'll be 10-6[3] for FAMS. It might sound stupid, but do like that little fake code run, one of you, towards, like, 52, go over the connector onto 78 and then come back. Maybe they're waiting. They're waiting to see someone leave. No. no passengers in the car, which is fair, but... I thought about that as well. Like, like in the west somewhere else. You should be able to tell by talking to somebody, you know. Typically speaking, if the odor is really strong coming from the car, it's probably going to be rather decent. I'm a friend of that. Especially the sole occupant, but if it says lift on the front and back, bro, let that show off. Yeah, he'd even stop it. It stops. Ask, like, is it worth my time? You know they're going to be sober. You just can't drive for shit. So, like, yeah, you know, all signs kind of point to them being drunk when you look at it, but then it's like, well, okay, they're just a lift driver. They can't fucking drive. And they're on their phone all the time. I can see the hell like to see the bushes any much yet.
