As an insurance guy: I was horrified!
As a Forum member: I wondered who'd post the video first!

Not to make light of a very serious situation, but she brought that RV down from over 75 mph to just above 10 mph to make that turn. And then accelerated down the road. Empty water tank, empty grey/black tanks, 1/2 tank of fuel?

All things considered, that thing was hauling the mail!

Don't think the water tank was empty as during some of the more extreme turns you can see water coming out (from a relatively high place, like the fill vent).

Sad for the dogs...sad for the pots and pans...sad for the innocent people she hit. It should be legal to just go ahead and shoot her in the head on the scene for endangering so many people's lives. DRT!!

Woman "allegedly" steals RV. In other words, don't believe what your eyes just saw...

Right!! Next thing, she'll claim mental issues. Didn't look to me like she was suffering from lack of brain waves...she negotiated that 25 minute run pretty well!

I was at a club race at Road Atlanta a few years back and part of the shenanigans were two guys racing buses. They were pretty good but they had nothing on this girl.

Yup: the cost of one high-power rifle cartridge, versus the cost of the trial, multiple appeals, and the eventual incarceration...

That's a grim reminder to always pull your keys and lock your rig. That RV was stolen! Hope the owner had good insurance coverage. They'll be finding out soon!

Agree...the owner probably left it in the driveway with the engine running...smiling and high-fiving when she drove off!!

Without reading the story: I would guess that it was stolen while the owner ran into a "Quick-Mart" (or some similar store...); to pay for fuel and snacks...
