> “The driver did not have a driver’s license, but instead identified herself with a Mexico issued (identification) card. Pursuant to our policy, Detectives contacted our federal partners, who informed Detectives that the female was in the United States of America illegally.

Automobile Accident insurance?.

(What auto insurance company would insure a driver with no auto license?)

On the bright side , her university degree in social work will prepare her for a stellar career helping the people of her home country once she is deported.

From the article: ...an unmarked Leeds vehicle....

What is an "unmarked" vehicle? Does that mean she didn't have a car tag? Then she was pulled over for something else besides just going 1 mph over the speed limit. As is typical, far left AL.com (owned by a New York outfit, by the way) can't keep their lies straight.

Let’s use the words of the liberal councilwoman who commented on the tourists getting eaten by a black mob. “She got what she deserved”, only in the case of the ILLEGAL ALIEN, she really did get what she deserved because she was a criminal! The tourists that got beat by the mob in NO WAY deserved what that gang of ferals did to them though!

It's a cop car without any obvious cop paint or insignia on it.

But you already knew that ...

Me: What is an "unmarked" vehicle?
NorthMountain: It's a cop car without any obvious cop paint or insignia on it.

Respectfully, the article talks like the unmarked car was the one that was pulled over. Or at least by reading of the phrase "the vehicle" used later multiple times in a later sentence with: “The vehicle came within feet of striking other vehicles and erratically changed lanes. A marked unit with the Leeds Police Department stopped the vehicle,” Irwin’s statement continued. Note that the article's use of "the vehicle" doesn't have verbiage saying, "Heads up. We're now talking about a different vehicle than the one we earlier called an 'unmarked Leeds vehicle'." So I'm left to assume that the vehicle pulled over is the same one that's the "unmarked Leeds vehicle" in the prior sentence. Of course, the article could be poorly written.

A criminal was taken off the streets, and some people are complaining. What idiots!

I can not tell you how sick to death of these sob stories I am.
She was here ILLEGALLY, KNEW she was illegal, and acted as if Biden was still in office.
Kick her out.

“... passed by a Honda sedan “at a high rate of speed of over 80 mph. The vehicle came within feet of striking other vehicles and erratically changed lanes. “

The illegal was trying to blend in with the young Alabama drivers but it didn’t work. :-)
