Horror footage has shown the moment a car flipped up and almost hit a mum and her child in a scary crash as they were just about to cross the road in Olton, Solihull.
The car smacked into a lamppost and then tipped over right where a mum and her young child, who might be two-years-old, were standing. The mum managed to move the pushchair away just as the car came tumbling towards them. The incident occurred outside shops on Warwick Road at 4pm, on Saturday, December 16.
After the crash, a shop worker helped out and said: "The mum was in shock and her little girl was only aged around two. We think she had a broken leg. It was a terrible crash."
