That child should be removed and never returned.

This is why we always keep the car doors locked when we go anywhere.

I'm wondering if it was hers or she borrowed it from somebody?
I saw that, it wasnt even smoking or falling apart!! Really the only reason she crashed was due to her driving errors, NOT the car being disabled in anyway.

I think its important to keep in mind, we only see the car chase, have not heard her side, I try not to jump to conclusions until I hear the whole story.

Actions are what they are. I'll gladly review the image and conclude the actions of this driver were: driving at unsafe speeds. Running red lights and endangering a child. Don't need to await this drivers reasoning to factually review the actions.
My skepticism though is the white car. That sat there as though waiting for her to open the door and get in. That part is the messed up part. How was it carjacking? She wasn't driving..she walked around the car..calmly opened the door.
Only thing I cannot confirm is...was it a prop baby in a car seat or a real child? I would not be able to discern in all honesty.

Since the incident happened on June 16, I would guess it has been determined that is a real baby and not a prop.

She's still in jail on the charges, and her child has been taken "into care", according to the article.

Apparently the kid was strapped in well. Such a good mom.

Texas women sure know how to drive.

The level of judgement needed to execute so many abberant actions, in succession, makes this one of the rare cases where long term state care for her child is at least ...not worse...

...unless there's some Jane Bourne stuff we don't know about...

Maybe this mother is the real Sarah Connor and she was protecting John Connor. Judgement Day is coming...

You don't consider a moving car with the left wheel locked in placed disabled in any way? Interesting theory.

Well if you watch the video the driver side front wheel blows out when hits the spike strip with that side of the car, and even though at one point, the front wheel was not even turning, yet she was still able to maneuver and control the car very well.

It wasnt the condition of the car that led to the crash either, if that car had not been in her way, I believe she would have probably made that right turn and kept going.

Y'know... I shouldn't be surprised if this is actually true...
