MIAMI (Reuters) - An 11-year-old girl was charged with drunken driving after leading police on a chase at speeds of up to 100 mph that ended when she flipped the car in an Alabama beach town.

 

A video camera in the police car captured the look of surprise on the officer's face when he approached the wrecked car and got a look at the motorist.

 

The Mobile Press-Register newspaper said the patrolman saw the Chevrolet Monte Carlo speeding and flashed his lights to signal the driver to stop. Instead, the car sped faster, travelling at up to 100 mph (160 kph) before sideswiping another vehicle and flipping over in the Gulf Coast town of Orange Beach, Alabama, on Tuesday night.

 

The young driver, who lived nearby in Perdido Key, Florida, was treated at a hospital for scrapes and bruises and released to relatives. Police also charged her with speeding, leaving the scene of an accident and reckless endangerment.

 

The car belonged to a relative and police were still trying to find out where she got the alcohol. There was none in the vehicle but her blood alcohol level was over the limit for adult motorists, police told the newspaper.

Kids from Florida seem to be really screwed up in the head. I really wonder whats in the water down there. Or have parents just become so lazy in the sunshine state that they forgot they had kids?

Haha. Badass. I wish I was that cool at that age. Outrunning cops while drunk and walking away from a 100mph crash with scrapes. She deserves a scholarship.
