A crashed car caused headaches for drivers on a busy roundabout.

The blue vehicle left the Key Street roundabout at Sittingbourne this afternoon and embedded itself on top of safety barriers.

The car carried on and hit a lamppost because of the force of the impact.

The crash happened just after 2pm and threatened to disrupt motorists on their way home this evening.

An ambulance was also called.

Police cordoned off part of the roundabout where it joined the London bound A2 at Keycol Hill and the Old Maidstone Road.

A police spokesman said: "We were called at 2.10pm to reports of a collision between two cars on Keycol Hill, Bobbing, Sittingbourne.

"Officers attended and found one vehicle had collided with railings.

"No injuries were reported.

"The road was closed while the vehicle was recovered and reopened at 4.20pm."

A spokesman for the South East Coast Ambulance Service confirmed an ambulance was sent at 2.15pm but there were no injuries.
