Update on pregnant Texas women given ticket for driving in multi person Lane...

The below are extracts from a recent Washington Post article on the lady ...
Bottone maintained to The Post that she hoped the Texas laws would be consistent on how the measures recognize unborn children.

“The laws don’t speak the same language, and it’s all been kind of confusing, honestly,” she said.

She’s due in court on July 20, which is only two weeks before her daughter’s due date of Aug. 3.

“It wasn’t because of Roe v. Wade that I hopped in the HOV lane,” she said. “I just thought of it as me and another person.”
Texas state Rep. Brian Harrison (R) vowed on Saturday night to introduce legislation to correct the language in the transportation code.

“Unborn babies are persons (meaning they’re also passengers), and should be treated accordingly under Texas laws,” he wrote in a tweet. “Brandy, keep fighting that ticket!”

@Viper not quite...a sperm by itself will never ever be a baby .... But i seem to remember some injunction about men spilling their seed upon the ground ... So maybe as we further approach Gilead this may be considered ...

@ozgirl512 I'm not currently finding any Texas Law that states an unborn child is a person either, so I'm not sure where this so called contradict in the law comes from...

Seems like it contradicts their beliefs, not what is actually written from what I've seen so far.

@Viper can't help you there... But i suspect the detail will be in the anti abortion law... If for example, performing an abortion is considered as murder, then the foetus would suggest to be being treated as a person....i just made that up as an example, i don't know what the law actually states
