SHOCKING dashcam footage has captured the moment a car veered out of control - and ended up ploughing through a shop window.
The driver can be seen cutting up another motorist at a roundabout before losing control, mounting a curb and plunging straight into an estate agents.
Drivers were left shocked following the crash, which happened in Okehampton, Devon, on Thursday afternoon.
Witness Maxine Nelson, 59, said: "I cannot for the life of me see how the car got there.
"The people in the car had to be taken out by the fire service.
"The car took the whole corner off the shop. It was unbelievable."
The car's driver and passenger had to be cut free by the fire service. Both were taken to hospital but luckily neither were seriously hurt.
Meanwhile the car, a Peugeot Expert Tepee, was wrecked.
In a statement, Devon and Somerset Fire and Rescue Service said: "One private car was in collision with a shop window, the glass has now been removed and made safe.
"Two occupants have been released from the vehicle and attended to by ambulance personnel, small tools used and the area has been made safe."
Earlier this week, we reported on another disaster caught on dashcam - as a woman hit a motorcyclist, only for her car to roll away as she ran out to help him.
And last week, other dashcam footage captured near Sheffield caught the dramatic moment two cars barge into each other as they try to navigate a confusing roundabout.
The stand-off sparked an online debate - with motorists struggling to agree on who was in the wrong.
