Nearly-Comatose Driver Drives For How Long…?
28-year-old Karyn Steinert of Littleton, CO, had the flu…and was operating (so to speak) on about 2 hours of sleep when she hopped in her vehicle and headed to the doctor. One might guess that she had taken some “do not operate a motor vehicle while”-type medication…as she drove around 30 miles with her head back against the headrest and her eyes basically closed. After calling 911 and doing their best to wake her (no response), a couple in a nearby car grabbed their video cam and taped her for a bit…being careful not to get to close, as she was all over the road. Newscast video included.
