8 YO Boy calls 911 on Mom's erratic driving

Boy's 911 Call Leads To Mother's Arrest - News Story - KPTV Portland

Kudos to this strong-willed little boy who knew that his situation was unsafe and acted on it....despite being bitten on the hand by his mother to get the phone away from him.

Good heavens!

That was really brave of him to call 911 on his mother!!

She must not of been playing with a full deck of cards, once your son has called 911 why wouldn't you pull over and stop driving???

What a brave littel boy. Smart boy. he knew right from wrong, too bad his mother didn't! The boy was acting like an adult and the mother a child....the mother was jabbing and biting his hand. Incredible child!

I just hope that someone is helping watch over the little boy. I would hate for the mother to punish her son for doing the right thing.

Kudos to the boy for doing what he did!!!

wow

Absolutely amazing!

I can't even imagine what these children have seen and been through prior to this incident.
I hope and pray that they'll be ok.

Me, too. Right now, the child is staying with a family friend but he'll probably end up in the foster care system. How that will work out is anyone's guess. Since he has a mother who drinks and bites him, it could be a major improvement. I'd like to say that he can't be worse off than he is now but unfortunately, that isn't true. I just hope that he'll be happy.

Why do people have children if they aren't going to take care of them?
