As long as the "get by" car isn't used as the "get a way" car, things should be fine.
A way for what? Oh wait...
It's okay, a get away car is never necessary when at Alabama. We all know most have left the scene in this type of car before even getting to the get away car... Shoot, they've even been so kind as to replace windshields in some of them.
Our criminals are better than your criminals.

JeffSnyder of the West Alabama Narcotics Task Force.Records did not indicate whether Johns had hired a lawyer. He was heldat the metro jail with bond set at $120,000.Saban dismissed Johns from the team almost immediately."This type of behavior obviously will not be tolerated and he is nolonger a part of our program," he said in a brief statement.Alabama players have been involved in a series of arrests andoff-the-field suspensions, with Saban acknowledging the need forbetter discipline and judgment earlier this year after two playerswere arrested within days of each other."I've said enough is enough and we're trying to fix it," Saban said in February.About two months later, Snyder said, police began getting tips thatJohns was involved in drug sales. Alabama was conducting springfootball practice around the same time.Undercover officers purchased cocaine from Johns five times in thelast 1½ weeks, Snyder said, and they arrested him at a gas stationnear his off-campus apartment, where he lived alone.Authorities who searched the apartment found about 10 grams of cocaineand ecstasy pills.

A lot of people knew him," he said.Snyder said officers purchased drugs twice from Johns at the player'sapartment, once near campus and twice at the university.
