I think part of the problem is nobody seems to know exactly what happened, and the police may still be sorting out the eyewitness accounts and figuring out what to charge her with.
In one comment section (I think it was in one of the articles at the Hampton Patch website), someone claiming to be the mother of an eyewitness said that the driver appeared to pull out suddenly from a line of stopped cars and accelerate, like she was attempting to pass. This is incredibly illegal and stupid on that part of the roadway. If this is the case, she is f***ked, and can't use the usual "I didn't see them, the sun was in my eyes, herp derp" excuses.
