THIS is the moment a drunk mum’s car flipped over after ploughing into a wall – with her terrified kids and pet dog in the back.
Gemma Trevail, 41, smashed her Suzuki S-Cross into the front of a shop in the County Durham village of Wingate.
Footage shows how the brutal impact flipped the Suzuki onto its side.
Miraculously, Trevail’s two kids and the dog walked away unscathed after the crash at around 9am on Friday, November 1.
Cops cuffed Trevail at the scene and took her into custody, where she was breathalysed.
The mum was found to have 105mg of alcohol in 100ml of breath – more than three times the legal limit of 35mg.
Local mum Trevail was charged with driving while under the influence of alcohol and two counts of child neglect.
She was also charged with driving while otherwise than in accordance with a licence, driving without insurance, and criminal damage.
Trevail admitted the offences and was sentenced at Newton Aycliffe Magistrates’ Court on Saturday.
She was banned from driving for two years and was handed an 18-month community order including compulsory alcohol treatment.
Inspector Andy Howarth said: “Trevail’s actions that day were incomprehensible.
“She showed absolutely no consideration for anybody else when she chose to get behind the wheel of her car that morning.
“It is a miracle she did not seriously injure or kill her passengers or an innocent member of the public going about their daily business.
“We see firsthand the devastation that drink driving can cause – it rips families apart and causes unimaginable suffering.
“Officers will be carrying out drink drive checks across County Durham and Darlington over the festive period.
“Don’t ruin your Christmas, or anyone else’s – if you’re drinking, leave the car at home.”
