ALBUQUERQUE (KRQE) - A mother is in jail accused of driving high on prescription drugs and crashing her car with her toddler inside.

Brandi Marquez was arrested this weekend after a call to Drunk Busters.

The caller saw Marquez drive into several curbs and the barrier on I-25 then nearly crash into a business.

She says she also saw Marquez’s 3-year-old bouncing around the car, nearly flying through the window at one point.

Officers say Marquez admitted to taking xanex earlier that night and didn’t have a valid license.

It was revoked in 2008 because of a DWI.

Marquez is now charged with child abuse.
