“The car in front of me signaled that I go around when I beeped at him, and that’s the only reason I stepped on the gas. The car starts spinning me and I all I see is the Brightline going by and I just say I have to get out of the car,” she said.
The event left Charal shaking up but happy to be alive. “I always loved life, but I love life more than ever,” she told Local10.
