DRINKING while driving is definitely dangerous - but usually the injuries aren't caused by the alcohol containers themselves.
A 58-year-old Californian woman died last week after being flung from a golf cart and being impaled on the shards of two wine glasses she was holding.
According to the California Highway Patrol, she was being driven by her partner in an E-Z-GO golf cart on a private olive orchard in a small town near Sacramento.
After the vehicle made a turn near the end of the orchard the woman was "unable to stabilise herself" and was thrown out.
The glasses shattered and she fell on the fragments, dying at the scene shortly thereafter.
Her partner was arrested on suspicion of driving under the influence, the police said.

You can now get a degree in fiery Chinese liquor, with the maker of Moutai, the country's national drink, set to establish its own university.
The state-run Kweichow Moutai company says it will open the new educational establishment in the city of Renhuai in Guangzhou province, and is just awaiting formal accreditation from the Ministry of Education according to the South China Morning Post.
The courses, which will take up to 600 students, include wine-making, food quality and food safety on the new campus which aims to redress a skills shortage in the Chinese liquor industry.
Moutai is so popular as a bribe in China that sales plummeted up to 30% during a corruption crackdown in 2014.
