Horrifying footage of a woman flipping her car, while she drank vodka at the wheel and her toddler sat in the back, has been released.
People have taken to social media to condemn Tania Chikwature, after she was reportedly three times over the drink drive limit in her Nissan Qashqai.
In dash cam footage the 32-year-old is seen speeding towards a roundabout on the A605 in Peterborough, before hitting the roundabout, sending the vehicle into the air.

Her 20-month-old child was in the car at the time, but thankfully didn't suffer any serious injuries.
The woman was allegedly driving from her home in Coventry to Peterborough, with the lorry driver who recorded the crash labeling the trip the 'most dangerous pieces of driving' he had witnessed in over 30 years.
District Judge Ken Sheraton sentenced Chikwature to be jailed for 26 weeks due to her recklessness. She's also been banned from driving for three years and has been ordered to pay a £115 victim surcharge.
The lorry driver who captured the footage said: "I thought 'they are not going to make it.'

"The car flew 12-14 feet in the air, cleared the roundabout and hit a tree, landing on the roof on the other side of the roundabout. I could see utter devastation.
"In 32 years driving, it is one of the most dangerous pieces of driving I have witnessed."
District Judge Ken Sheraton went on to say that the 32-year-old was lucky to not have killed someone.

"It is only by luck, and certainly no judgement of yours, that you are not here facing more serious charges, and you are fortunate that someone did not die in that accident," he said.
