Ariana Ayala was a passenger in the vehicle that crashed into a parked car and a fence on Valley Hi Drive in April. The driver, Sacramento police confirm, was a 19-year-old male friend of Ayala's.
Betsy Lopez, Ayala's mother, says she never wanted to watch the video, but when she did, she saw an opportunity to be her daughter's voice.
"I was very angry," Lopez said. "I was confused as to why. Why was she in the car? I always wonder, and I'm probably never gonna get the answer to this. What were her last moments like? Was she scared? Was she yelling? Was she saying anything to him at all?"
"I need answers and it feels, as her mom, I'm not getting those answers. I don't want my daughter's life to be swept under the rug. Her life mattered," Lopez said.
Photos on the family mantle show Ayala with animals. She loved horses and she was always smiling, her mom said.
On Valley Hi Drive, the damaged fence has been repaired. The truck smashed by the speeding vehicle is parked in the driveway, still damaged and undriveable. A memorial is set up at the fence line, cared for by Lopez and the homeowners.
"It's not worth it. There are a lot of things that're gonna come after, God forbid, anything like this happens again. But they need to understand that this is not a game. This is serious. You're putting other people's lives at risk and it's not fair," Lopez said.
A Sacramento police spokesperson told CBS News Sacramento the crash is still under investigation and can't share beyond that.
