Victoria Police say a woman was more than three times over the legal blood alcohol limit when she used her phone to film herself speeding and driving carelessly moments before careening off the road.

Oh snap! This is footage of a driver's Snapchat video taken seconds before she ran off the road and crashed, thankfully without serious injury. The phone's screen bears the imprint of a Mazda logo which crash investigators believe was caused by the deployment of the airbag. The driver was charged with speeding, careless driving, a blood alcohol reading of 0.164 and (of course) using a mobile phone while driving.Posted by Victoria Police on Thursday, 18 January 2018
