Dashcam video shows Ryan Zimmerman passed out behind the wheel of his car Saturday at the intersection of County Road 475 and SE 32nd Street, with the car still in drive.

You can see a deputy bang on the door to wake him up and that’s when Zimmeran’s car rolled forward and hit the deputy’s cruiser.
