A woman hid in the boot of her car for a day-and-a-half after a minor crash - to avoid the police while sobering up.

When cops found the car crashed into a wall in Bad Kreuznach, Rhineland Palatinate on Saturday, they figured the driver had just left it there, and took it off to a garage.

But the 30-year-old driver was huddled in the boot - and stayed there to straighten up.

There was food and drink inside the car, which the woman could reach from where she was hiding, the Bild newspaper reported.

She later told police she had been under the influence of drugs and alcohol at the time of the accident - and has now lost her driving licence.
