As far as the Supra, well talk about bringing a knife to a gun fight.....
Might as well have brought a Miata. For the price of a base Corvette, people are running 9’s. For 911 money, the Corvette and Supra would slay the 911.

Well, she wasn't wrong. What a waste of life.

Supposedly it wasn't even her car. The story goes while her friend was in the restroom she and another guy took the keys for a joy ride. She was behind the wheel speeding and lost control.

I dunno. The article says this:

Quote:
Stephanie Angelica Vasquez also showed herself getting work done on the car.
But who knows what she was about:

Quote:
The mother was charged with driving under the influence of alcohol, transporting a loaded handgun in a vehicle, and possession of a firearm by a prohibited person.
Not a model citizen, but sucks for them and any kids left without parents. I don't see a Supra on her Instagram.

The cop said the car didn't belong to either one of them, but I don't think they stole it. Pretty stupid to make a vid of yourself driving a stolen car. The internet mumble of it being a friend's car seems the most plausible.

State court records also show that Vasquez was charged with driving 111 miles per hour in a 65-miles-per-hour zone in Anne Arundel County on Aug. 31.

In addition, Vasquez was charged with driving 79 miles per hour in a 40-miles-per hour zone on April 16, and with driving 86 miles per hour in a 55-miles-per-hour zone on April 27. The April incidents happened in Montgomery County, according to court records.

Failure to display license to police.
Who said she had a license? Having a license or not doesn't stop her from driving a car, especially a car she doesn't even own.
