Appeal for dash cam footage after car driven wrong way on M27

We are appealing for witnesses and dash cam footage after a vehicle drove the wrong way on the M27.

We were called at 7.39pm on 29 October with reports of a silver Honda Accord driving the wrong way along the eastbound carriageway of the M27 between junctions 1 and 2, with hazard lights activated.

The vehicle continued on the wrong side of the road onto the A31 travelling through the New Forest, before leaving the dual carriageway.

Further police enquiries led officers to an address in Wilton, Wiltshire, where a 79-year-old woman was arrested on suspicion of dangerous driving. She has been bailed until 29 January 2025 while further enquiries are conducted.

Anyone who saw this vehicle, or captured it on Dash Cam, from junction 2 of the M27 to Stoney Cross between 7.39pm and 7.45pm is asked to contact police on 101, quoting 44240471597.
