    At least it's not like the guy in my neighborhood. Dude got a DUI but his massive wife still needs to go to the doctor. So he pulls out the riding lawnmower with a trailer. He loads his massive wife in to the trailer and takes off down the road. Loaded in the trailer with the wife is usually a couple of gas cans 'cause tractors don't get very good mileage.

    But you can hear the tractor coming and every so often you hear "CAR!" as the massive wife plays lookout. I don't know if they have ever gotten pulled over but I see them all over the area, toolin' around on that Cub Cadet.

    Sadly, I've seen something like this happen before when I was a kid growing up in metro Detroit. One day when the school bus pulled up to the end of my street to drop us off for the day, there was a guy waiting at the bus stop on a riding lawn mower. He had a squirt gun and a butterfly net and started chasing the kids down the street on the lawnmower. Those of us that had bikes waiting at a neighbor's house got away quickly (myself included.) Half an hour later, I was standing on my porch with my sister watching the stand off between the police and this nut. He rams the mower into the side of the police car and the spinning of the one drive wheel actually dug a small pit into the asphalt. Didn't take too long for the cops to haul him off.

    you're supposed to get drunk or high on blow/crack/blunts, steal a car, drive the stolen car down residential streets at 100 mph, and hit a car full of children on their way to school. suburban posers.

    Back when I used to go to school in Fraser, people would get high and get hit by trains while on foot. Now a days, kids don't even want to walk. What is this world coming to?

    Wow, something must be in the water up there. Everyone in this clip is stupid, from the idiots riding the mower, to the i'm going to drive my police car into the path of a riding mower, taser-happy cop, to the over-dramatizing anchors. Oh and the citizens calling in, wow they're riding a mower at 2mph around the neighborhood actually back to the place it was 'stolen' from. And in our next story public welfare psychologist coach a suicidal cat out of a tree just seconds before he was about to jump!

    This happened up the street from my future mother in law. She said it was the most hilarious thing you ever did see.. She didn't see them hit the cop car, but she said she saw the lawn mower go by once or twice.

    I wish they would have dropped the blade on her lawn during one or two of those passes. I'm the one that mows it.
