JACKSONVILLE, Fla. \u2014 A mother was arrested for D.U.I. after driving 120 miles per hour on I-10 with her three-year-old in the back seat, says the Jacksonville Sheriff\u2019s Office (JSO).<\/p>\n
According to JSO, an officer pulled over the mother after seeing her drive 120 miles per hour on I-10. The officer enlisted the help of D.U.I. Officer Ernesto Valerio after he smelled marijuana in the car.<\/p>\n
An investigation determined that the mother was driving under the influence and found a lit marijuana joint and several empty bottles of alcohol after searching the car. Her three-year-old was in the backseat.<\/p>\n
In the body cam footage posted on JSO\u2019s social media, Officer Valerio asks the mother, \u201cYou think that\u2019s a safe way of driving with him?\u201d<\/p>\n
JSO says that the mother was supposedly driving fast so she could get to her 10-year-old son, who was left at home.<\/p>\n
The mother was arrested for D.U.I. and violating Florida\u2019s Super Speeder law, which makes it a crime to go more than 100 miles per hour.<\/p>\n
