Terrifying moment car teeters on edge of sinkhole which opened up suddenly in road
A CAR teeters on the edge of a sinkhole which opened up suddenly in the road.
The black Skoda Fabia was left wedged by its front wheel with a rear wheel off the ground.
Its elderly driver was shaken but unhurt and was helped out of the car by barber’s shop owner Russell Gull.
He said: “The first thing I noticed was a man warning us there was a pothole.
“One car went round it but the next just drove straight ahead and dove right in.
“We helped the guy out, he was elderly, but seemed okay, just a bit shaken.”
Residents in Worksop, Notts, said the area was prone to holes forming as the road was built on top of an old drain.
Police closed the road after the incident on Saturday morning.
