Hampton Park hit-run driver flips car in dramatic red light crash
Don't miss out on the headlines from Motoring. Followed categories will be added to My News. A driver's reckless attempt to flee a hit-and-run has ended in a spectacular crash at a busy intersection in Melbourne last Thursday. The chaos began around 6.20pm, when a driver in a grey Kia suddenly swerved in front of another driver while attempting a U-turn in Hampton Park, in the city's south-east. The startled man, who filmed the entire incident on his dashcam, shouted 'what the f**k' and 'pull over' while repeatedly flashing his headlights towards the erratic motorist. A Kia driver was caught on camera taking a risky U-turn before fleeing. Picture: Facebook/Dash Cam Owners Australia The situation escalated moments later when both drivers pulled up to a red light. The man can be seen exiting his car in a bid to confront the driver of the Kia who in response, crawls closer to the busy intersection. The attempted getaway quickly turned disastrous when the Kia sped through the red light, colliding with a white car between Hallam and Pound Street. Footage then shows the Kia, in what feels like slow motion, flip onto its roof while lanes of busy traffic pass. Thankfully, bystanders confirmed that 'everyone was fine after it.' The video, which was posted to Dashcam owners Australia, has gathered over 28,000 likes – with many branding the incident as 'instant karma.' 'Now that's karma … I feel for the other drivers though,' wrote one user 'Karma at its best,' said another. 'How would you explain that to your insurance company?,' said a third. The driver then speeds off before they can be confronted at the red light. Picture: Facebook/Dash Cam Owners Australia The car dashes through the red light, colliding with a white sedan. Picture: Facebook/Dash Cam Owners Australia In a statement to Victoria Police said: 'Police are investigating a series of collisions in Hampton Park on 31 August. 'It is understood a grey Kia Sportage station wagon was travelling south along Hallam Road when it conducted a U-turn and collided with a grey MG MG4 about 6.20pm. 'Both vehicles continued north along Hallam Rd before coming to a stop at the intersection with Pound Road. 'The driver of the MG, a 37-year-old Hampton Park man, approached the Kia which then took off through the intersection and collided with a white Toyota Corolla travelling along Pound Road, causing the Kia to roll. 'The driver of the Kia, a 29-year-old year old Narre Warren South woman, was transported to hospital with minor injuries. 'She is expected to be charged on summons with several traffic offences. 'The driver of the MG and the driver of the Toyota, 55-year-old Torquay man, were not injured,' they said. Before flipping onto its roof. Picture: Facebook/Dash Cam Owners Australia Just two months ago, a wild roadside brawl broke out in Melbourne between what appeared to be two couples throwing fists at an intersection. The fight, which was captured on dashcam footage, showed a man leaving his car to approach a silver Ford sedan, prompting the woman on the passenger's side to also get out in traffic. Shocked onlookers witnessed the first man grab the driver by the shirt while his female partner scuffled with the other woman, who attempted to stop the fight. Anyone who witnessed the collision, has dashcam or CCTV footage, or anyone with information is urged to contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000 or submit an online confidential report at Originally published as Driver gets 'instant karma' after wild hit-and-run
