One less drunk driver on the road!

I appreciate people describing how they are "safely" using cell phones to call in these situations, but my understanding of most cell phone laws is that it is legal to make an emergency call with a cell phone while driving. Calling 911 about a dangerous drunk driver fits my definition of an emergency.
When I was much younger, late at night I was driving home behind a person who was seriously weaving on the road. We actually passed a cop who was setup in a speed trap (we weren't actually speeding), but as we passed him the drunk accidentally drove straight down the road, so the cop didn't pull out. I almost stopped to wave the cop to go after him/her, but didn't. Yes, this was when few people had cell phones. For two weeks, it killed me looking at the local news for any drunk driving accidents in that area. Fortunately as far as I know nothing came of that, but ever since I have not been afraid to call in bad situations if I am able.
