A driver in the UK had a miraculous escape after he crashed into a road sign causing the vehicles's windscreen, and part of the roof, to be sliced in half.

According to CorkBeo the freak accident happened on Sunday evening near the N20 when the Range Rover left the road and hit the sign.

The road sign sliced through the front windshield but thankfully the glass didn't shatter leaving the driver to walk away unharmed.

Local police and ambulance services attended the scene but did not need to treat anyone for injuries sustained during the crash.

A spokesperson for the police said: "Gardaí attended the scene of a single-vehicle collision at Waterloo, Blarney on May 30, 2021 at around 7.30pm.

"The car is believed to have collided with a sign post at the side of the road. No injuries were reported to Gardaí at the time of the collision."

In photos taken at the scene of the crash the silver Range Rover is pictured with the large road sign cut into the roof and windscreen of the vehicle.

It is not clear whether there were passengers in the car at the time of the crash or whether it was just the driver travelling.

The Northern Ireland is part of the UK
Garda is the police force in the Republic of Ireland which is different from Northern Ireland

Didn’t happen in the UK. ‘Gardai’ is the Irish name of the Irish Police, meaning that the accident definitely happened somewhere on the island of Ireland.

Happened in Cork, which was part of Northern Ireland until few decades ago.

The confusion is understandable, since North Ireland is part of UK....This happened in the Republic of Ireland, which is not currently part of UK in contrast to her Northern land-locked Neigbor, North Ireland.

Sir I think you're wrong.
The UK isn't a state.

UK comprises of 4 countries.(England, Wales, Northern Ireland, Scotland)
So in this context, using the UK isn't entirely wrong.

Someone is about to be rich.

Nope. He crashed into the sign and it fell on his car. He is going to be fined for destruction of public property.

If the sign fell without being hit, then he can sue for damages etc etc

This cannot be the UK or the story is just cut and paste.
There is no police anywhere in the UK called Garda.

UK uses left hand drive, so the driver sits on the right side of the car. What determines left/right drive is the side/location of the hand brake, not side of the road or location of steering wheel.
