Wis. woman calls 911 to report herself for drunk driving

A call to 911 about a drunk driver isn't all that unusual. But what about when the driver is the one who's calling?

Police in north central Wisconsin say 49-year-old Mary Strey recently called 911 to report herself as the impaired driver.

Here's a transcript of the 911 call:

Dispatcher: Clark County 911

Mary Strey: Somebody's really drunk driving down Granton Road...

Dispatcher: ...Which way are they going?

Mary Strey: They are going, um...

Dispatcher: Towards Granton or towards Neillsville?

Mary Strey: Towards Granton

Dispatcher: Okay are you behind them, or...

Mary Strey: No, I am them

Dispatcher: You am them?

Mary Strey: Yes, I am them

Dispatcher: Okay, so you want to call and report that you're driving drunk?

Mary Strey: Yes

Deputies say Strey from Granton, Wisconsin made the call and did pull over when the dispatcher asked her to. A deputy had her do field sobriety tests.

The report shows she blew a 0.17, nearly twice the legal limit for driving. Deputies ticketed her for OWI, her first offense.

Deputies say when she called, she was about 2 and a half miles from home.

There's video and audio.

Now that Mary Strey is one fine upstanding citizen, don't you think?

Canadian, maybe?

I saw gang grafitti in vancouver that said 'Obey The Rules'.

i think it would have made more sense to just not drive ... ? in order to call 911, she had to use her cell phone as well as driving drunk! in CA that would be 2 offenses, rather than one...

* Clove
* Lemon
* Cinnamon Bark
* Eucalyptus
* Rosemary

some add/substitute: Juniper, oregano, cinnamon, or tea tree for some of the ingredients. Some don't use lemon......It was probably not in the original recipe, lemons being quite scarce during the middle ages......

Which explains why all those peasants had scurvy.

Why? is a pretty serious question. This could take awhile.

Come sit down for a minute and I'll give you a neck message. Close your eyes and dream of being home.
