DRIVER ESCAPES THROUGH CAR BOOT
Mr. Peter Johnson, aged 23, battled for half an hour to escape from his trapped car yesterday when it landed upside
down in three feet of water. Mr. Johnson took the only escape way - through the boot.
Mr. Johnson's car had fallen into a dike at Romney Marsh, Kent, after skidding on ice. "Fortunately, water began to
come in very slowly," Mr. Johnson said. "I couldn't open the doors because they were touching the banks of the dike, and
I didn't open the windows because I knew water would come in."
Mr. Johnson, a sweets salesman, of Holy Bank Hill, London Road, Kent, first tried to attract the attention of the other
motorists by using the horn and hitting on the roof and the boot. Then he began his struggle to escape.
Later he said, " It was really a half penny which helped me. It was the only coin I had in my pocket and I used it to
unscrew the back seat to get into the boot. While I worked on the screws I could feel the water collecting underneath me
on the roof. I hit again and again trying to make someone hear, but no help came.
It took another ten minutes to unscrew the seat - and a further five minutes to clear the sweet samples from the boot.
Then, he found a wrench to open the boot lock. Fifteen more minutes ebbed away. "It was the only chance I had. Finally
it gave, but as soon as I moved the lid the water and mud gushed in. I pushed the lid down into the mud and went out.
His hands and arms cut and bruised, Mr. Johnson got to Beckett farm nearby where he was looked after by the
farmer's wife Lucy Bates. Huddled in a heavy coat, he said, "That thirty minutes seemed like hours." "Only the tips of the
car wheels were visible," police said last night. The car had sunk into three feet of mud at the bottom of the dike.
