Opinari - Latin term for Opinion. Opinari.net is just what it seems: a cornucopia of rants, raves and poignant soliloquy. |

I'm convinced that the worst drivers in the world are in New England. Then again, I never met this guy:
Maryville, TN - It may be right to call 911 to report someone's chasing you on the highway — but not if it's a sheriff's deputy in pursuit.
Kevin Richard Vowell, 31, of Maryville placed such a call to emergency dispatchers during a high speed chase on U.S. 411 early Sunday morning, Blount County sheriff's spokeswoman Marian O'Briant said.
The incident began when a deputy noticed Vowell driving erratically and signaled for him to stop. Vowell pulled over but then spun his pickup truck around and fled down the highway, with three patrol cars in pursuit.
Vowell then dialed 911 and reported he was being chased but would not stop until he got to Vonore.
"The dispatcher advised him to stop, telling him, 'You're only making it worse,'" O'Briant said. Labels: Archives_2004
