Chaos on the M27: Porsche Crashes After Spinning Out Across Three Lanes
Late on Friday night, a dark blue Porsche Boxster with private plates lost control on the M27 Westbound. The sleek 50K ride spun wildly across three lanes before smashing into the embankment. The drama unfolded in the early hours of Saturday morning, forcing police and Highways England to shut one lane for recovery work.
Driver Escapes Without Major Injuries
Thankfully, the driver walked away without serious harm despite the high-speed spin-out. However, the car was an absolute write-off, mangled beyond repair and hauled away on a recovery truck.
Police Issue Warning Over Slippery Roads
Officers have urged drivers to be extra cautious as more heavy rain pounds the South Coast. Hampshire Roads Police Group tweeted:
“Drive safely and allow extra time to get about this morning, road and weather conditions are poor. The wet weather is set to continue. Plan extra time for your journey and think about your speed.”
Expect Travel Delays, Drive Safe
- Wet roads make for dangerous driving.
- Reduce speed and increase stopping distance.
- Allow plenty of extra time for your journey.
Stay alert out there — the M27 is already feeling the effects of the stormy conditions.
