Man continues driving Porsche for miles on M25 despite severe crash damage

A man who crashed his Porsche on the M25 continued to drive for about 20 miles despite severe damage to the car.

Police said when the vehicle was stopped by officers on the motorway near Cobham, Surrey, the driver told them that the crash had happened in Kent.

An image posted on Twitter by the force shows dramatic damage to the rear of the vehicle.

It appears to show part of the car unattached and lodged in the car's boot.
