Aaron, J.
*696 A jury convicted Laura Reynoso Valenzuela of carjacking (Pen.Code, § 215, subd. (a) 1 ; count 1), reckless evasion of a peace officer (Veh.Code, § 2800.2, subd. (a) ; count 2), and possession of methamphetamine (Health & Saf.Code, § 11377, subd. (a), count 3.) Valenzuela waived a jury trial on two alleged prison priors. The trial court found one alleged prison prior true and the other not true. The court sentenced Valenzuela to a total term of six years eight months in prison, consisting of the middle term of five years on count 1, eight months (one-third the middle term) on count 2, one year for the prison prior conviction, and the middle term of two years, concurrent, on count 3.
*279 On appeal, Valenzuela asserts that the trial court erred by allowing the prosecutor to ask her whether she had a prior conviction for reckless evasion. Valenzuela also asserts that Proposition 47 requires this court to reduce count 3 to a misdemeanor and strike the one-year sentence enhancement imposed for her prison prior. We reject Valenzuela's contentions and affirm the judgment.
