Wild as it is, you are 100% correct. Gotta admire the survival instincts on this girl lol. She was drunk. She got off with likely a fine as opposed to a whlle ass arrest, vehicle impounded, and then all the court dates to clear the DUI.

Why are we praising a woman for driving home drunk exactly?

You act like we are praising her morality & virtue.

LOL right, girlie is a hot mess and not making good choices, but I'm also acknowledging that staying would have done her no favors and gotten her into even deeper shit. DUIs are very expensive and take months and months to resolve.

I read updates to the incident and it seems like she got some help for her alcohol problem, which is the appropriate thing here and I'm glad she got some help because damn this girl is a hot mess. And yes she deserved to have to pay for the guy's car and all that. Staying would have resulted in an arrest, vehicle impoundment, MORE legal fees, and all the rest. I'm glad to see justice was ultimately served for OP tho.
