I felt no urge to phone the cops on him but I might change my mind if he had a bag up to his face. It seems like huffing and driving would just be hard to do, as the bag might blow in your face or you could pass out. I would point out that doing ANYTHING except driving when behind the wheel is probably not a good idea. The guy in the BMW front of me on Olympic the other day was smoking a joint.

I'm gunna have to go with believing they were chewing sunflower seeds or the like. Like most drugs, it'd be a waste of a high to just do that while driving and running errands. Snitches get stitches.

The bigger issue here is ole9 thinking under the influence is somehow there to punish abusers not protect society at large from them when they get behind the wheel.

But as I wrote, there is some possibility, albeit extremely slim, that he was doing something other than huffing.

You said this guy's face was in a bag and he appeared to be inhaling. So the immediate conclusion is that he was huffing? Could he have been spitting tobacco, or puking? That said, no, I wouldn't have called the cops. They probably wouldn't respond for at least an hour. I dunno. You said this guy’s face was in a bag and he appeared to be inhaling.

That said, no, I wouldn’t have called the cops. They probably wouldn’t respond for at least an hour.
