New Mexico Drunk Driver Runs Himself Over

It was an unusual ending to an all too common occurrence in New Mexico. A drunk driver was being chased by police near Cochiti, New Mexico when he got out of his vehicle thinking it was in park. However, the driver was drunk and anaware that the vehicle was in reverse and not park. As a result, the police chase ended when the drunk driver ran over… himself.

Remarkably, the driver sustained only minor injuries and was treated in Santa Fe. The chase itself will no doubt be played on late nite cable television shows based on outrageous polcie chases.
