Written by News on 19/09/2020
A woman has fallen out of a moving car on to a motorway after leaning out of a window to film a Snapchat video.
Police in Surrey said the woman fell from the car into a “live lane” between junction six of the M25 and the Clacket Lane Services at 1.30am on Saturday.
A spokesman said the woman was treated at the scene by paramedics and no arrests were made.
In a post on Twitter, Surrey Police Roads Policing Unit said the woman was not seriously injured, before adding the hashtag “#nowords”.
The tweet said: “The front seat passenger was hanging out the car whilst filming a SnapChat video along the #M25. She then fell out the car and into a live lane.
“It is only by luck she wasn’t seriously injured or killed. #nowords”
A Surrey Police spokesman said: “Officers were called to the M25 between junction six and Clacket Lane Services shortly after 1.30am this morning following reports of a female falling out of a moving vehicle.
“The woman was treated by paramedics at the scene and her injuries were not life-threatening or life changing. No arrests have been made.”
A report in 2018 found that more than 250 people had died while taking pictures of filming themselves in the previous seven years, but the number had surged in more recent years.
