    You're right about that! It was such a scary event. I was wondering how a policeman could get into her car that was going 100 miles an hour, sounds like the plot for a good adventure movie!

    Well thats got to be confusing to figure whats going on in your area! I dont know the news is probably like that around here too, I just dont have enough patience to watch the local news here though. I read the news paper when I get it and can circle all sorts of misspelled words and odd sentence structures.

    The Kansas City Star newspaper told that she pulled up on the gas and down on the brake, but it only worked on the third try. I doubt if even she has the story straight, though. Can you imagine driving like that and being on the cell phone, and reaching down to pull up on the gas pedal????? I would never get in that car again......or any of that kind! Praise the Lord that NO ONE was hurt!

    I thought I was the only one who did that. I do it in books that I'm reading, too . . .
    Be warned. I am BORED.
    This could be dangerous.

    When you get cold just go stand in the corner.
    They are usually 90 degrees.

    A giraffe's coffee would be cold by the time it reached the bottom of his throat.
    Ever think about that? No? You only think about yourself??

    You realize that it was a woman driving. It had to be, I've never known a man that can multi-task like that.

    Haha!! LOLS!!! That is the truth, I can carry in a million bags loaded up to my elbows and unlock the door and drag them inside and my husband is behind me with water and soda that i would have usually carried in standing there when i open up the door again saying, thanks for holding the door. I was like "ok G.I. Joe" I'm horrible I know. sigh.... so off topic.

    At the end of the video it looked very much like a Chevy bow tie to me as the policeman pulled up behind her car. Some said it was an SUV, looked like a sedan to me.

    It was a Kia Sorento, a small SUV.
