THE VEHICLE, A 1994 LINCOLN TOWN CAR PINK/PURPLE IN COLOR, HAD BEEN STOPPED FOR DRIVING AT SPEEDS IN EXCESS OF THE POSTED SPEED LIMIT AND DRIVING WITHOUT CAUTION IN A PARKING LOT THAT WAS FILLED WITH NUMEROUS VEHICLES AND PEDESTRIANS. THE DRIVER OF THE VEHICLE CAME INTO THE PARKING LOT FROM NORTH FLORIDA AVENUE AT A HIGH RATE OF SPEED, DROVE THROUGH THE CENTER OF THE PARKING AREA, BETWEEN THE STORE AND THE GAS PUMPS, THEN MADE AN ABRUPT LEFT TURN TOWARD THE GAS PUMPS WITH TIRES SQUEALING. THE VEHICLE CAME TO AN ABRUPT STOP IN FRONT OF THE GAS PUMPS CAUSING THE OCCUPANTS OF the VEHICLE TO LURCH FORWARD. THE DRIVER EXITED THE VEHICLE AND WENT INTO THE STORE TO PAY FOR THE GAS.
