Mom Faces Charges For Breastfeeding While Driving

Pittsburgh Woman Pulled Over On Ohio Turnpike

A local mother is in trouble with the law for breast feeding while driving.

Catherin Donkers, 29, was pulled over along the Ohio turnpike.

Donkers is charged with child endangerment for breast feeding her 7-month-old daughter.

Donkers claims she did nothing wrong and says she doesn't feel she was putting her child in excessive danger.

"The very fact that I am in a car; and there's lots of car accidents every single day. And I think it would be reasonable to say that even that's a danger," Donkers said.

Donkers says her daughter rides in a car seat at all times when she is not nursing.
