BMW driver 'bins it' into hedge after taking corner too fast in front of police
A BMW driver had a lucky escape when he crashed into a hedge in front of a parked police car.
Officers from Staffordshire Police Roads Policing Unit shared photos of the grey car on the side of Dudley Road, Himley.
The BMW 1 Series had a damaged front end, with its numberplate snapped and hanging off, while the front airbags had also gone off, while the sign warning drivers of a potential skid risk on the road was also hit.
Explaining what happened, officers from the unit said on Twitter: "Not only did this BMW driver decide to take a bend to fast in front of a parked Traffic car and bin it into a hedge, he ironically took the skid warning sign out at the same time.
"No injuries luckily."
They issued the driver a ticket for driving without due care.
