In the age old battle between capital drivers and roadside barriers, barriers on Monireth Boulevard chalked up an impressive victory on Wednesday evening.

A Toyota Camry was careening down the street, when the driver lost control of his vehicle, colliding with an electricity pole.

The vehicle then careened off the pole, skidding onto the top of the barricades, before flipping upside-down.

The driver managed to extricate himself from the wreckage and fled before the police arrived to impound the car.
