FLOWOOD, Miss. -- A woman in Mississippi faces a charge of driving under the influence after video footage apparently shows her going airborne in a car at 100 mph and landing at a gas station.
WLBT reports that 24-year-old Shelby Lynne May walked away from the wreck with only minor injuries.
Authorities said the crash happened as May was leaving a business, had overcorrected and went into oncoming traffic, crossed back over and went airborne.
Video footage shows her apparently crashing into a gas station sign and abruptly landing near a gas pump with the car upright. Nobody was hurt, other than the driver's minor injuries.
A deputy said May admitted to having “several beverages.” She was jailed under a $1,500 bond and has court planned for next month.
