A man has been arrested on suspicion of drink driving after his car crashed into a broken down vehicle on a dual carriageway.

The aftermath of the crash

An Audi A3 is thought to have been travelling at about 60mph when it collided with her Vauxhall Corsa.

She said: "I'm lucky I got out my car when I did because I wouldn't be alive.

"I feel sick to my stomach, literally can't believe I'm alive."

No injuries were reported.

Police spokesman James Walker said: "On 18 January 2019, John Tidder, 41, of High Street, Snodland was arrested on suspicion of drunk-driving in Gads Hill, Gillingham.

"He was later charged with the offence and is bailed to appear before Medway Magistrates Court on Tuesday, February 26."
