Watch: Hampshire police car avoids 100mph wrong-way crash

A police car travelling at more than 100mph (160km/h) had to swerve to avoid an oncoming vehicle on the wrong side of a dual carriageway.

The near-miss happened on the eastbound A303 in Hampshire at about 20:45 GMT on Friday.

A dashcam video captured the police car travelling at 117mph (188km/h) when the oncoming vehicle came into view, prompting an exclamation from the police driver.

Officers have appealed for help in tracing the driver of the red car which was travelling westbound between Norton and Micheldever Station.
