A car ended up being filled with pig slurry after a bizarre collision with a tractor and slurry tanker in the UK recently.
The Derbyshire Roads Policing Unit tweeted about the incident last night (January 18) and it has received plenty of attention on the social media site.
The collision – which seems to have included a Vauxhall Astra – is understood to have occurred on a roundabout where the A515 road meets the A50.

The car struck one of the outlets on the slurry tanker and it was subsequently dragged down the road.
A50. Think you have had a bad day? How about cutting up a Tractor on A515 Roundabout and colliding with the sewage outlet on the trailer. Then get dragged down the road whilst the car starts to fill with Pig waste through the drivers door. No injuries. #PassTheShakeAndVac pic.twitter.com/sebDEGZ77I

The closed period for spreading slurry was recently lifted in parts of Ireland. Contractors and farmers were eager to begin spreading as storage on many farms had reached capacity.
