"German woman on her way to pay respects to a dead relative ploughed across the
cemetery drunk in her car, smashing up headstones and tombs before she ground to a halt in someone's grave, police said.
The woman drove into the graveyard in the southern town of Mitterteich on a track running through it but veered off as she struggled to control her vehicle, local police said.
"Eventually she ended up stuck in a grave and couldn't get out, so we had to pull her out," a police spokesman said. "She said she'd come to visit one of her relatives' graves."
Police estimated the total damage to graves and the 53-year-old's car at around 18,000 euros ($A30,123)."
