She said: “We were probably doing 70 and out of nowhere a black Range Rover spun out of control and hit my mum’s car at about 90 degrees.“We managed to swerve the central reservation. If we had hit that we would be dead.“Mum’s car spun into another lane. We were lucky not to be hit and feel very, very lucky to be alive, let alone not injured which is a miracle.
“We are just traumatised. We are going to be seeing the doctors now and I think we’ve probably got PTSD. We are not in a good way, either of us.” Two passing motorists courageously pulled up to help, one parking in the hard shoulder and one behind Susan’s vehicle. They then walked on the motorway to get the cars onto the hard shoulder.“They stood in the middle of the road and helped us drive to the hard shoulder. The one guy put his life on the line really,” added Jessica, who works as a communications manager.
