A suspected drug-driver had a lucky escape when he lost control of his car and smashed through a bridge wall.

Derbyshire Police shared photos of the driver's Seat Leon on the edge of the bridge in Calver shortly after 23:00 BST on Sunday.

The Derbyshire Dales Response Unit said the driver - who tested positive for cocaine - escaped the vehicle via the passenger side.

A 20-year-old man, from Sheffield, was detained by officers.

He has since been released under investigation pending toxicology results, the force said.
