Driver speeds through traffic lights and smashes into Manchester car dealership

A car almost flew as its driver sped through a T-junction and smashed into a business in Manchester, leaving a man in hospital.

Dashcam footage shows the vehicle crashing into Charles Wilson Auto Engineers just after midnight on Thursday, 19 October.

Firefighers extinguished a blaze involving one of the vehicles.

A man was taken to hospital to receive treatment, North West Ambulance Service confirmed.

Rinzi Phoya, 50, whose dashcam captured the incident, said: “They sped through the traffic lights and went right into the building, going pretty fast.

“The passenger got out but the driver had to crawl out as their side was pretty smashed in. The front of the dealership is all glass.”
