A lucky escape...
A car stopped on the side of the A38 near Alfreton last night after suffering a blowout to its front left tyre - only for a lorry to smash into its side.
Derbyshire Police tweeted: "This is why we say try not to stop on dual carriageways or motorways but if you have to - get out and call 999."
Police were called at 19:30 and are still looking for the driver of the lorry, who failed to stop.
Nobody was injured in the crash.
