Kingwood woman says here enormous breast implants saved her life.

A Brazilian model, actress and former record holder for the world’s largest fake bosom has credited her enormous assets with saving her life.

Sheyla Hershey, of Kingwood, Texas, said her size 38KKK chest cushioned the blow from a post-Super Bowl car accident when her airbags failed to deploy.


“I’m so lucky to be alive right now,” Hershey told Houston TV station Fox 26.

Hershey said she was on her way to visit family Sunday when she lost control of her vehicle and slammed into a tree.

Authorities have charged Hershey with a DWI, though she said she wasn’t drinking and passed a breathalyzer test. Hershey takes medication for bipolar disorder and depression but that had never impaired her driving before, she told Fox 26.
“I just think it was a bad day,” she said.

Asked whether she truly believed her breasts saved her life, Hershey said, “they definitely did because they’re very sore right now.”

Hershey is a former Guinness World Record holder, but reportedly lost the title in 2010 after removing her size MMM breast implants because of a life-threatening infection.

Kingwood teen dies in truck wreck ...

Fatal Pickup Tuck-Flatbed Truck Crash: MyFoxHOUSTON.com

KINGWOOD, Texas - A teen has died after the pickup truck he drove crashed into the rear of a flatbed truck in the Kingwood area.

The Isuzu flatbed truck was traveling northbound on U.S. Highway 59, the Eastex Freeway, near the North Park Plaza exit when the Isuzu driver determined one of the tires was flat. He began to decrease the speed of the Isuzu to move it to a shoulder lane.

The Toyota Tacoma following behind the Isuzu was traveling at a high rate of speed when the crash took place around 11 p.m. Tuesday.

A rescue crew removed the teen driver, later identified as 18-year-old Eduardo Garza, from the crashed Tacoma and he was taken to LBJ General Hospital where he was later pronounced dead. Garza was a resident of Splendora.

Kingwood DWI initiative

By STEFANIE THOMAS

Houston Police Department Kingwood officials urge area motorists to put down one of two things: the cocktail, or the car keys.

Effective immediately, HPD Kingwood officers are engaging in an overtime program dedicated to seeking out impaired drivers, said spokesman Officer Dwayne Ulrich.
“The initiative was not necessarily prompted by a surge of drunk driving in the Kingwood area,” Ulrich said. “It’s a concern everywhere, and the Houston Police Department is making a push for DWI enforcement across the city. Harris County leads the nation in alcohol-related vehicle deaths, and Houston leads the county.”

The DWI initiative - a precursor to the upcoming annual HPD March on Crime program, which will also focus on the prevention of building and vehicle burglaries - will last at least until April, with police officers strategically placed around the Kingwood area for the sole purpose of pulling intoxicated motorists off the road.

“Don’t drink and drive. Have a designated driver,” Ulrich said. “If you drive under the influence, you not only endanger others but yourself as well.”
Texas legislature recently imposed tougher penalties for DWIs. As of Sept. 1, first-time offenders with a blood alcohol concentration of 0.15 or higher are facing a class A misdemeanor - which carries a fine up to $4,000 and possible jail time of up to one year - instead of the previously customary class B misdemeanor, which is now reserved for first-time offenders with a BAC of 0.08-0.14.

Motorists who think just a drink or two may be okay before getting in the car - think again. According to Chapter 49.01(2)(a) of the Texas Penal Code, intoxication is defined as “not having the normal use of mental or physical faculties by reason of the introduction of alcohol, a controlled substance, a drug, a dangerous drug, a combination of two or more of those substances, or any other substance into the body; OR (b) having an alcohol concentration of .08 or more," meaning that a drunk driver doesn’t necessarily have to meet the 0.08 BAC threshold to be legally considered intoxicated.
