Cheryl Milligan was at the Louden Tavern on March 16 this year, watching a football game and drinking.
An Old Firm game was played that day at Celtic Park, which Rangers won 2-3.
At 6pm, she went back to her car, which was parked outside. Two passengers also got in.
She accelerated at speed as she travelled down Duke Street.
As she drove, she collided with Hasan Aksu’s car, parked on the street.
Mr Aksu, who was inside the vehicle, had injured his right leg and bruised his ankle on impact. The car door was also damaged.
Milligan continued driving until she collided with another parked car. This was empty but the crash caused damage.
The East Kilbride resident kept driving and smashed into another parked car, then a lamppost. This caused significant damage to her vehicle as well as the lamppost.
One of the passengers broke his left arm, while the other had a slight abrasion to his upper torso.
When 999 crews arrived and spoke to Milligan, they noted she was clearly intoxicated.
She failed a roadside breath test and was taken to Cathcart station, where she provided two breath specimens.
95 micrograms of alcohol was found in 100 ml of her blood.

The 42-year-old appeared at Glasgow Sheriff Court this week after she pleaded guilty to causing serious injury to Mr Aksu and one passenger by dangerous driving.
She also admitted to colliding with three cars and a lamppost while carrying two passengers.
Her lawyer stated: “She has very limited recollection of events because she consumed a concerning amount of alcohol. She had been drinking for six hours at that point and was in a state of intoxication.
“I couldn’t say why she decided to get in the vehicle. This is very much out of character for her but she has had minor traffic violations before.
“She is very much against the idea of getting behind the wheel once having consumed alcohol.”
The solicitor also explained that Milligan lost her job as a result of the incident.
He added that his client is apologetic and understands the gravity of the offence.
Sheriff Colette Gallagher said: “I was quite astonished when I heard the narration. I am concerned you didn’t stop when you collided with the first car.
“You are fortunate that you and the children were not seriously harmed. No doubt this has a significant impact on them, this is a very serious matter indeed.
“It passes the custody threshold. You had children in the car.”
Milligan was sentenced to a community payback order and placed under supervision for two years.
She was also ordered to pay Mr Aksu £1200 and complete 300 hours of unpaid work within 12 months.
Finally, she was disqualified from driving for 38 months.
