Did they get their driving licence in a lucky bag?

74 plate Volvo ain't cheap looks like all the airbags deployed so probably insurance write-off. Road is fairly straight on that section only two slight Hills behind the car and a 90° bend 50m in front... must have been on their phone

Hard to say what happened...could have been a car overtaking on the bend and had to ditch it to avoid a head on collision?

Or swerved to miss a car on the phone swinging out coming the opposite way

Years back I was called out to tow in an accident damaged vehicle. Normal questions asked, how badly damaged, is it off the road? No, it's just got one wheel on the pavement. I get there, and as the punter said, it's got one wheel on the pavement. Trouble was the other three were buried in a ditch.......

Easy to call out bad driving but how do you know they didn't have a medical episode?

No footpath, fine to park

At least you didn't have to roll it back over.

That's giving me Mini flashbacks.

I passed a quite slow driving & just "not quite right" VW Transporter on the road near mine this morning.
I looked as I passed & sure enough a 30-something guy only looking down at his lap - almost certainly on his phone. He didnt even notice I was passing.

(I do wonder.... with new cars with these Lane Assist / Warning gadgets - do these nuggets feel safer & spend even more time scrolling & staring at their phone screens?).

Wrecked my '87 Mini swerving to avoid a car coming towards me in the middle of the road on a bend. Clipped the grass verge on left and plowed through a hedge and barbed wire fence landing in a field. Rebuilt it, teaching myself to weld use my first mig welder.

Yes I'm sure that's exactly what's happening
