Mom Accused Of Driving Drunk With Child In Car


Posted on Jun 18, 2009

TAUNTON, Mass. (AP) -- A Taunton woman has been charged with being drunk when she crashed her car into a tree with her 4-year-old daughter in the back.

Corina Collins was released on personal recognizance after her arraignment Wednesday on charges of operating under the influence of alcohol, negligent operation of a motor vehicle and reckless endangerment of a child.

Police say the 32-year-old woman crashed into a tree on Monday. She told police she took a turn too wide.

The Taunton Daily Gazette reports that responding officers could smell alcohol on her breath so they conducted field sobriety tests, which she failed.

A Breathalyzer test showed that her blood alcohol level was .236, nearly three times the legal limit.

Neither mother nor child was seriously hurt.
