Two kids turned their dad into police — as he allegedly drove drunk with them inside the car.
Jason Behrens was driving recklessly in Nebraska last week en route to a vacation in Colorado with kids Ethan, 12, and Mackenzie, 14, — when the siblings made a decision to get their pop off the road, according to CNN.
“We told him, ‘We don’t want to go anymore because you are drunk and I don’t want to die,” Mackenzie told the network.
The two made a pact that if their dad got close to an accident , they’d take action.
“The next time he swerves, send the text,” Ethan remembers telling Mackenzie moments before their dad swerved out of the way of a head-on collision.
“ I pushed send,” the teen daughter said.
Behrens’ children managed to convince him to pull over at a Burger King in Kearney, where police were able to catch up with them. The county has a text-enabled 911 system.
Cops arrested him after he blew three times the legal limit on a breathalyzer, according to the report.
Behrens was charged with a DUI and two counts of driving drunk with minor.
“They really, really, really saved our lives,” Ethan said.
