maybe she was needed to blow into a breathalyzer attached to the car?
sick individual.
Reminds me of a situation that happened to my daughter when she was an EMT. The fire station was contacted during a snow storm; there was a bad accident on the highway. She and her EMT partner drove out to the site. The driver was drunk as a skunk. The windshield was broken, and they kept asking the guy if there was anyone else in the car. He said no.
Then my daughter heard a child crying out in the storm. She went to the sound and found a little 8-year old girl. She had been ejected from the car. Both legs broken. She got the gurney and brought the girl to the ambulance. She was so angry at the drunk driver, it was all her partner could do to keep her off of the guy. She wanted to kill him; thank God she heard the little girl crying in the storm.
