US ambassadorial jeep barely misses crashing into Kazakh President’s car

My brother-in-law just called me to warn me to be careful about anti-Americanism in reaction to this. Presumably the guy was drunk, but that ain’t right, my friends, that just ain’t right…

But from the US side: The AP story
So maybe it was just a screw up–so this guy stopped peacefully or he was jumped and forced to stop at threat of strangulation?
EDIT: The whole thing has now blown over nicely. It was just a mistake, he was in a big rush and thought he had just gotten lucky by finding the street empty of all traffic. When he saw the limo with the Big 01 KZ, he panicked. Understandable.

Also while seeking news on that, I ran into this: Three Kazakhs in Guantanomo

And this: Nazarbayev says government leaders should party less Apparently advisors to military attaches should also follow these rules.

Finally, the daugher of the President appears to have figured out that shutting down Borat made the country look worse than Borat himself ever did.
