A resident who passed the scene said: ‘The reason I took the photos was because it was the oddest of sights.

‘The car was wedged between the wall and the electrical box. How it got there I have no idea. I couldn’t see any tyre tracks.

‘Parallel parking had that area pretty much cut off.’

A spokesman from the fire service added: ‘Firefighters made the scene safe and provided immediate emergency care to one driver before handing her into the care of ambulance colleagues.’

South Central Ambulance Service was contacted for further information about the injured driver.
