A drunk pedestrian is almost as dangerous as a drunk driver. Have you ever encountered a drink pedestrian who argued with you? A few months ago I was driving late at night with trucks all around me and encountered this drunk pedestrian who stepped in front of my car and started arguing. Unfortunately there was no proper sidewalk. There was enough space for him to walk though. He kept waving his hands unsteadily and talked for a few minutes before he ran out of steam and walked away unsteadily. I just stayed quiet inside the car with all my windows up and doors locked with a smile. Thankfully he didn't have a weapon and didn't throw anything on the car. He was obviously too drunk to talk too or realise what he was doing. Have you ever encountered a drunk pedestrian? How do you tackle them?

We met a drunk pedestrian when we were driving late at night. He seemed very drunk and very angry. He tried to open our car doors, but they are always locked, so he didn't manage to get inside.

@pitstop We were afraid of him, but fortunately he didn't manage to open the door. We have met other drunk pedestrians, but they weren't aggressive at all.

It is good that if we saw any drunk pedstrian, we stop till he crossed us. Precaution is better.

Yes. Better be cautious as they behave unpredictably.
