It Takes A Real “Boob” To Breastfeed While Driving!
KETTERING — A Harrison Twp. woman faces child endangering charges after police said she admitted to breastfeeding her child and talking on a cell phone while driving, according to Kettering Police Officer Michael Burke.
"Hold on a second, I've got to turn at the next light. Hey, quiet back there!"
The incident happened about 7:45 a.m. Thursday, Feb., 26, near the intersection of Far Hills Avenue and Dorothy Lane, Burke said.
A male motorist called the police department’s non-emergency number to report that he had seen the woman breastfeeding and talking on a cell phone while driving, Burke said. The man reported that he also witnessed the woman driving a Honda minivan into the parking lot of a local school and saw some children get out of the van. The man then got the van’s license plate number and called police.
“I’m following right behind her right now on Far Hills Avenue,” the caller said as he spoke to a Kettering dispatcher in a recording of his non-emergency call that was released by police on Friday, Feb. 27.
“I tried to say something to her. She literally has the little girl on the steering wheel and I said, ‘I can’t believe you have that kid in your lap and she said, ‘You want to pop your titty out and breastfeed this kid?’ That’s what she said to me. I’m like, ‘You can feed your kid when you stop.’ It’s like wet out here. It’s full of traffic. It’s ridiculous. She’s got like three other kids in the car.” (Read more.)
B.S. Report–Wow, the guy actually ratted her out…I don’t know that I would have done the same. But the guy is obviously right…we all see how many accidents are caused or narrowly averted just by talking on the cell phone.
Add breastfeeding into the mix and the 3 other kids in the car and this lady is behaving really irresponsibly.
I’d like to register my own complaint here and now. Lately, I’ve seen a lot more cars with videos playing…and I don’t mean just for the passengers. I’ve seen many drivers now watching dvd movies in their cars while driving.
