A Lawrence mother says her instincts just kicked in when she used her body to stop her rolling car that had her two young children inside. Mindy Trans left knee was crushed and her right leg dislocated from her hip. The 22-year-old was injured while trying to save her twin toddlers from the rolling car. "I had to use myself as a speed bump to slow it down enough for one of my neighbors to get in and completely stop the car," Tran said. The incident happened on March 6, just days after signing a lease at her new Lawrence apartment.
