chris heff Posted May 17, 2020 Share Posted May 17, 2020 Granted this was dumb, but at 23 I had long list of dumb things. I’m as concerned as everyone else, but this needs to play out. I have a question that immediately came to mind. Has anyone on this thread ever called 911 on someone driving erratically? I’ve lived in NYC, LA and now South FL, which has the worst drivers and never considered calling 911. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, Quinton Jefferson, Harry, Star, Vincent Taylor and Vernon Butler are already vying for playing time in the interior. I will assume that they will see more time in their natural position in the first few games of the season, when you would assume a suspension would take place. Giving the rookie minutes there can’t be a priority when you have a team who has invested so much there and has title aspirations. 4 minutes ago, HOUSE said: I bet he didn't even use his turn signals when changing lanes...

Wizard Posted May 17, 2020 Share Posted May 17, 2020 (edited) McDermott will send a message. Even if he receives a 1-2 game suspension from the league, McDermott ought to add another game. if Oliver wants big boy money or that 5th year option, this better be a one-off for Oliver. I'd bring Kyle Williams in for a one-to-one, and then have the team captains specifically have a meeting with Oliver that this is not Bills football, the process, or acceptable. Oliver better be a model citizen and still get at or near 10 sacks after a suspension. Edited May 18, 2020 by Wizard 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With a trailer, even minor corrections look like major swerves. If I was trailing someone who had a trailer going out of the lines repeatedly, I would call 911. Drunk driving is no joke.

Being in Law Enforcement for the past 30 years, yes I do. Apparently you don't understand what 911 is all about or what consistutes an emergency. In the callers mind it was and it appears they were correct. Think about it this way.....maybe we should thank the caller because maybe minutes later Oliver t-bones someone and seriously hurts or kills a person.

Sig1Hunter Posted May 17, 2020 Share Posted May 17, 2020 2 hours ago, Mango said: There is a strong possibility that since this was reported in a construction zone that he wasn’t uncontrollably swerving, rather trying to stay away from the medians/no shoulder. I used to drive about 45k trailer miles per year. Although a much bigger load. I’ve done a couple cross country trips with it as well. 40 foot open trailer, 60 foot load (over hang), 13 feet high, with a pick up. I used to swap lanes all the time at night if there wasn’t much traffic and their was no shoulder. It’s not the greatest to navigate. You would also be surprised at what people will call you in on when you’re towing. I have had two calls to my employer, which they would had to google because our number wasn’t on the truck. Both just for just being in the right lane. I would be going 80 plus not holding up traffic at all. I’m not sure what I find more amusing. The extent that you are going to in order to excuse Ed’s behavior, or the irony of your avatar! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blank Stare Posted May 17, 2020 Share Posted May 17, 2020 Are people really debating/criticizing the other driver for calling in Ed’s reckless behavior? Good grief. I’m guessing those criticizing it is because he’s a Bills player and this may impact the season. Football and/or the season mean jack if he would have hit and seriously injured or killed someone. No one should be making excuses for Ed. I’m sure he’s a fine young man, but he made his bed. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thinking about it, being a country-guy type probably makes it a lot harder for Ed to Uber or Limo or all that, but still, must be a solution where he could hire a designated driver perhaps just not get medicated when you know you have to drive ? Ever ? I have been able to accomplish it. Very boring life i have though self discipline is what Makes great football players . McD will be on his azz over this.

Yeah but he said they were looking for a drug charge and when they didn’t find any they threw in the gun charge. I didn’t know if he happened to know anyone that was involved in the investigation. They obviously got his blood for a reason. I’m not familiar with the penal or traffic laws in Texas but depending on the lab results, he could still be hit with operating while impaired by drugs.
