WASHINGTON — The woman who drove the wrong way on Route 50 in July, leading to two deaths, was under the influence of alcohol at the time, police said Monday.
Maryland State Police say Christine Parks had a blood alcohol content of .34 when she drove eastbound in the westbound lanes of Route 50 in Annapolis on July 26. That’s more than four times the legal limit in Maryland.
Parks crashed head on into another vehicle, killing Hui Xu, a 34-year-old from Herndon, Virginia. Parks also died. Two others from California were injured in the 2 a.m. crash.
Parks’ toxicology tests came back negative for any drugs in her system.

No regard for anyone else. This kind of thing is sad, but also can be avoided. My thoughts are with the families. People need to make decisions based on how their actions hurt others.
They will give her time on about the 5th trip around.
Christine Parks is from Salisbury Maryland. I had a sneaky suspicion she was drunk!
