I hope this is not the case, but this seems like she saw the currently streaming documentary Crash where a young girl was high and purposely drove into a building.
Good, I hope someone gives her a preview of one of those great prison movies where someone purposely drives a knife through her skull.
No money for a new license but money for weed
Why does she look happy?
Still high?
She’s high…. That’s why
The marijuana didnt cause the crash her dumbass speeding did
I thought people that were high sat at stop signs waiting for them to turn green?
2:30 pm..crazy to be killed at such a time, it is so crazy to have people that are around us like her.
I have things on the bottom of my shoe more valuable than hers.
