Posting on Twitter, the roads policing unit issued a stark warning to the motorist who fled the scene.

They said: ‘[We attended a] two vehicle collision at A3 south, Horndean. One vehicle came to rest in a ditch at the roadside – occupants are okay.

‘We can't update on the condition of the BMW occupants as they left the scene before we arrived. Can't think why.

‘Don't worry though. We're coming for you.’

Anyone with information about this incident can contact the police force by dialling 101.

In an emergency, always dial 999.
