While taking the course I was thinking to myself, I wonder what could have happened to all of the impaired drivers if I hadn't intervened.
If I Weren't There
If I weren't there to stop you
Would you have made it home?
Safely to your family
Or to your home alone?
Could you have gone without a crash
And taking an innocent life?
Using your car and your impaired mind
As weapon; a gun or knife
Is it possible you'd have killed yourself
In some fiery mass of steel
Leaving me and my fellow officers
To tell your family, and see how they feel
About you making such a rash mistake
To drive after drinking so much
No longer would they hear your voice
See your face, feel your touch
You curse me as I handcuff you
And take you off to jail
As I read the forms and write the tickets
And make you post your bail
But think of this when we arrive in court
And remember well my face
That because I arrested you that night
You're alive to be in this place
