An Invercargill woman this morning escaped being another road toll statistic.
Just before 7am a 1994 Nissan Primera Grey saloon was seen driving through Mataura at high speed and dangerously.
Thirty minutes later the same vehicle was again seen, travelling south towards Invercargill. Police say the vehicle crossed the centre line on a straight stretch of road at Kennington.
The car then drove into a culvert on the opposite lane and flipped.
Police and ambulance staff pulled the 40-year-old woman from the car and she was taken to Southland Hospital.
Police are seeking information from anyone who has seen this vehicle driving erratically, to help with their investigations.
