Motorists enjoying their Sunday were in for a shock if they passed Bourges Boulevard by the roundabout next to Waitrose.
A car had not only crashed into a lamppost on the roundabout shortly before 7pm but could be seen for hours suspended in the air.

The road was closed while recovery took place before reopening at 9.05pm.
A police spokesman said: “Officers were called at about 6.50pm yesterday (Sunday, June 16) to reports of a green Nissan Micra which had crashed into a lamppost on the roundabout joining Bright Street and Bourges Boulevard.
“Two men, believed to be the driver and a passenger of the car, left the scene before the vehicle was recovered at just after 9.40pm.”
