Small Town Misfit

Atlanta, GA
An officer tracked a 2005 silver Ford Mustang going 95 mph in the HOV lane of I-20, near Boulevard. Only one person was in the Mustang using the HOV lane, the officer noted. He stopped the car and talked to the driver, a 39-year-old Stone Mountain woman. She said she didn’t have a driver’s license, but her daughter was in some type of unspecified trouble, and she needed to get to her. Eventually, the woman admitted that her license was suspended. She failed several field sobriety tests, but refused to take a Breathalyzer test. So she went to jail. She was charged with DUI, speeding and reckless driving, among other charges. As the officer completed the paperwork, “[The woman] became aggressively insulting, referring to me as bitch, the devil, Satan, and Damien. [She] also went on to advise me of how much she didn’t care about what was going on and there was nothing that anyone could do because she was not drunk. [She] also advised me that she had money and she would get out of this.”
