'Drunk, drugged' driver narrowly misses sleeping woman after ploughing ute into Brisbane home

A woman is lucky to be alive after a ute ploughed into the front room of a Brisbane home overnight.

The car collided with the home on Laurel Street on Redbank Plains around 1.15am – just metres from where a 23-year-old woman was sleeping.

The woman was uninjured, but spent the night waiting for the ute to be removed.
