Connecticut State Police
Once the trooper was behind the vehicle, the driver complied and stopped in the right shoulder of the highway.
During a traffic stop, state police said a 21-year old woman from New London was driving and there was a toddler and an infant in the back seat of the vehicle with a passenger in the front seat.
The woman reportedly told the trooper that she was speeding because she needed to use the bathroom, however, authorities said she passed several rest areas before the traffic stop.
The woman is facing charges including reckless driving, reckless endangerment, operating under suspension and risk of injury to a minor. She was released on a $1,000 bond and is due in court on November 18.
