Woman Accused Of Hitting SUV 12 Times On Highway Wright Pleads Not Guilty To Charges

POSTED: 4:29 p.m. EDT April 26, 2004 UPDATED: 5:47 p.m. EDT April 26, 2004

BOSTON -- A Sandwich, Mass., woman faced charges in a courtroom Monday stemming from an alleged case of road rage.

NewsCenter 5's Jorge Quiroga reported that police say Jennifer Wright, a 28-year-old University of Massachusetts at Boston art student, slammed her red station wagon into a sport utility vehicle 12 times on Interstate 93 north in Milton Friday.

"There was an off-duty Brockton police officer who witnessed the other operator cut her off and then apparently the incident revolved around that," said defense attorney Robert Brown.

Witnesses claimed Wright chased the SUV, screamed and waved her arms at the driver and hit the vehicle 12 times.

Wright plead not guilty to assault with a deadly weapon, malicious destruction and driving to endanger.

While the court did not place any restrictions on her driving, she was ordered to see a court psychologist.

"(The psychologist will) assess whether or not there are any psychiatric issues, anger management issues and if there are then the court clinical psychologist will then make recommendations," said Brown.

Wright was released on pre-trail probation and must submit to an anger management evaluation before returning to court on June 9.

Yeah, and I'm sure the fine will be less than it is for speeding at 11-20 over!

There is an oxymoron alert around here somewhere.

I've been to Naples, though it was a while ago. I still think that Massholes make Italian drivers look sane (except for the four-lanes-on-a-two-lane-road thing, but nobody's perfect :)
