The vision shows a red Mazda driving fast as it zig zags through people and children, along the water's edge at Moana Beach in South Australia.
Just after 8.30pm on Saturday, January 8, witnesses reported the SUV on the beach and that it had become bogged in the sand.
"Patrols attended at the scene and located the vehicle and the driver still on the beach," a South Australia Police spokeswoman said.
"Police requested a breath test from the driver who allegedly refused to comply with the breath analysis test."
The 38-year-old female motorist was taken to hospital where a sample of blood was obtained for analysis.
