omg - I just got back from the post office UPDATE Cops arrived
I got there and there was a man that looked like he was about to step out of his car. I hurried in to get to the machine before him (I don't like being in one of those things alone at night with some strange man!) and bought my stamps, stamped my envelopes and dropped them in the mail...all the while this guy did not move...started creeping me out...
Suddenly a car pulled up next to him and beeped the horn several times... the guy still didn't move... the car drove off and the guy sat there -still not moving! At this point I was totally freaked out and called DH and told him...he stayed on the phone with me while I walked to my car then drove past the man - the light was on the car but he was hunched over, eyes closed!
DH told me to come home immediately and he would check it out (we are like a minute from the PO)... DH went and pulled up next to the guy - no movement but DH said he appeared to be breathing... but unresponsive to calling out or even beeping the horn...
I told DH to call the police...DH is still there now and I'm waiting to hear back from him...   
Update:
The cops arrived and woke him up. The man claims to have been on prescription medication that made him drowsy. DH said he couldn't tell for sure, but he appeared like he could have been drunk - or drugged up (meds). But who falls asleep with one leg hanging out of their vehicle, door wide open, about to step out of the car???? 
Either way - the guy obviously should not be behind the wheel of a car at the moment so I'm glad we called.
DH is back home.

They are sending a car... DH says the man might just be passed out drunk...
He's going to stay there until the cops get there...

Re: omg - I just got back from the post office UPDATE Cops arrived
I remember reading about some people who have diabetes and it can appear that they look and smell drunk or drugged....I hope he is ok and how scary for you!!!
OH and btw, from what I have heard heroin can make you pass out like that too...who knows....

Re: omg - I just got back from the post office UPDATE Cops arrived
Wow!!! Sounds like really strong meds.
My friend fell asleep like that at the ATM for about 10 minutes on meds. Luckily it was the type to time a person out otherwise her account could have been drained.
