Drunk teen drives while breastfeeding baby
April 08, 2009 • 4:53 pm
By Diana Fasanella

An Australian teen faces a multitude of charges after being stopped for breastfeeding her child while driving drunk.

The 19-year-old mother was pulled over in Alice Springs after she almost crashed into a police car, according to The Sun.

The young mother, who wasn’t identified, was so drunk she couldn’t give a breath test and was already banned from driving from a previous offense. Police said the 5-month-old infant was placed at significant risk.

Besides having a suspended license, the woman was driving an unregistered and uninsured vehicle. She faces charges of failing to provide a breath sample, driving while suspended in an unregistered and uninsured car, failing to give way and driving with an unrestrained child.

Multi-tasking at its worst.

22. People need to stop assuming that since someone is charged with a crime doesn't mean they are guilty
I'd be afraid of anyone of you being a member of a jury in my trial. However if she did do this it's a very poor lack of judgment.
