Hopefully somebody just jacked his car and it wasn't him that wrecked it.

Doubt that. I would think he would know first of all that his car was gone.....? and report a 350 k car missing and just remember he's a bear......then again maybe TANK borrowed it.

I know I'm sticking my neck out there DUI possibility........

Re: Police Want to Question Briggs Following Possible Hit and Run

From PFT:



WSCR radio in Chicago reports that a black Lamborghini owned by Bears linebacker Lance Briggs has been found crashed and abandoned.
Briggs reportedly was seen running from the scene of the one-car accident.
Though we don't know whether Illinois law imposes hit-and-run liability for a one-car crash (and we invite any members of the Illinois bar to let us know what the rule is there), Briggs' motivation to leave the scene was greater than was his desire to remain with a car that costs slightly more than the average horseless carriage.
Video of the wrecked car, which Briggs supposedly bought right before the start of training camp, is right here.

Well, they'll get him for wreckless driving and leaving the scene of an accident, and John Q Law will slap his wrist. However, Roger Goodell will suspend him for 32 quarters...

Re: Police Want to Question Briggs Following Possible Hit and Run

If he was drinking, it wasn't the dumbest move to ditch the car and come back after the booze is out of his system. I mean, if no one else was involved it wasn't the worst idea as it preserves plausible deniability. I don't think there's anyway Goodell could suspend him for this.

Especially if he had a dead hooker in the back...

True. However, Hit and Run is usually a felony. I'm not sure what the laws are in Illinois, but if it is a felony then that might not be too much better than a DUI.

Hit and run isn't usually a felony unless there's personal injury involved.

I see. Good to know. I heard some reporters talking about it on the news, and they said that some states' hit and run laws don't apply to single car accidents. Although, they didn't say whether that was the case for Illinois.

Well, I checked Illinois' statutes and it looks like this type of accident would be classified as a class A misdemeanor. I'm not sure what type of punishment there is for this kind of misdemeanor. Most likely it would be either a fine and court cost, temporary license suspension or some type of unsupervised probation possibly.
