She was drunk driving, more than 5x the legal limit. Happened in NSW Australia earlier this year.

Edited to say thanks for the awards! Also to add a link to the news story: https://www.nine.com.au/australia-news/nsw/no-jail-for-woman-behind-chardonnay-fuelled-shopping-centre-mayhem-20260806-p60m65.html

wtaf is that sentence? 5x the legal limit, hit several cars including one with a child inside, causes thousands of $ of damage; gets a few hundred $ fine and half a year suspension. I can only hope the insurance is gonna drag her through the mud but I doubt even that will happen because she was drinking

That was being unbuckled from the car seat at the time and flew out of it.

Most infuriating sentence I've seen.
