A car rolled over on the S5 expressway in Kościan (Greater Poland Voivodeship). According to the police, a cat running freely inside the vehicle caused the accident by blocking the driver's view. The man who drove the car and a female passenger were both injured. The animal ran away.

The accident happened on Tuesday around 10:30 a.m. at the S5 expressway in Kościan. "We received a call about a red Toyota that rolled over on the road," Kościan Police spokesman Mariusz Wojciechowski said.

Cat blocked the driver's view

At the scene of the accident, the police determined its cause. It turned out that there was a cat in car, which jumped in front of the driver and blocked his view. "The driver tried to move cat and that's when the vehicle careened onto the hard shoulder and rolled over," the spokesman said.
