According to police, a state trooper saw a Chevrolet Tahoe that was speeding on Route 101 westbound, weaving in and out of traffic around 9:17 p.m. At one point, the SUV was clocked at 112 mph.
The driver, later identified as Stanley, was pulled over, and the trooper found her two children -- ages 1 and 4 -- inside the SUV. They were not buckled or secured with any type of child restraint system, police said.
