THE force of the impact ripped the wheels of this BMW sedan when it ran off the road onto grass at the intersection of Peninsula Link and Frankston Freeway north bound on Wednesday (8 July).
It appears the car was travelling at high speed and failed to take the corner. Patterson River CFA attended the scene and bound tape around the car.
Senior Constable Damien O’Brien, of Frankston Highway Patrol, said police had “no idea” how the accident happened but “I think 100kph would have been fast enough to do that sort of damage,” he said.
Police have spoken to the owner who confirmed the car had not been stolen. They are “not sure” who was driving at the time. “It’s early days yet,” Senior Constable O’Brien said.
It’s believed no charges are pending.
