Polish Lorry Driver’s Night Turned Nightmare
The drama began when a Polish HGV driver was forced to pull over at Medway services after attackers broke into the back of his lorry, damaging the curtain and risking his cargo. Following police advice, he parked up hoping for a quiet night.
Instead, he was abruptly awakened by a deafening crash. Rushing outside, he discovered a red car had smashed off the motorway and plunged into the forested area near the services.
Heroic Rescue Amid Wreckage
Under the smashed car, the driver spotted two young children trapped. Acting fast, he called emergency services. Firefighters and police battled chaos to free the kids, who were eventually pulled to safety.
“I really hope they are okay. I have been worrying about them all night. I have children myself,” the shaken driver said.

The condition of the children remains the top concern for officers and emergency services. Locals rally behind the young victims and their families, hoping for a full recovery.
