Alex Clark, from Maidstone, had been travelling through the Boxley area from Medway when he crashed into the back of a black Mercedes B Class, which had come to a sudden stop.

Mr Clark asked people to get in touch with him if they had any information in a Facebook post.

It read: "Not how I hoped my Thursday would go.

"Heading down Boxley Hill from Medway to Maidstone. Car in front of me stopped inexplicably in the middle of the road.

He notes there was no damage to either vehicle.
