Car abandoned at scene of crash with unusual driver still in the front seat

It’s not too uncommon to see a crashed car on the side of the road while getting from A to B.

But those wrecks don’t always contain such unusual drivers.

A car crashed on Mill Lane in Swindon some time ago – it’s not clear exactly when – and since then the wreck has been left abandoned.

So locals have been left with raised eyebrows after a blow-up sex doll was placed inside the abandoned car.

The doll was posed behind the wheel and looking out of the front driver’s side window, which is missing.

Pictures of the comical sight were shared on local Facebook groups, with Casey Waren-Keel saying: ‘I spoke to the police officer myself when this happened.

‘The driver ran away after crashing the car, but whoever did this made me laugh this morning.’

It was hoped the extra attention on the wreck might encourage the owner of the car to come forward and move the car – but so far the wreck hasn’t moved.

Instead, the blow-up doll was removed after a couple of days.

Pictures of the scene suggest the car seemingly hit a yellow-bordered sign with black and white arrows, which indicates that a sharp bend is ahead.

It then left the road and ended up in a ditch full of reeds and other shrubs.

The access to the boot had been removed or damaged, and the front passenger side door was open, with the front passenger seat leaning forward.

The hubcap of the wheel below the front driver’s side door was missing, while the rear driver’s side wheel hung in mid-air.

Scraps of police tape were still attached to the vehicle’s wing mirror indicating that a police cordon had been put in place at some point.

However, when Wiltshire Police were approached for comment they said there was nothing on their incident logs that could match the location of this accident.
