This is the moment an out of control driver crashed SIX times in a minute - hitting at least three cars and a number of walls.CCTV footage shows the car pulling out at a junction into a road - and straight into a pile of bins and a wall.Other drivers don't stop to help - and unusually the vehicle then reverses back onto the road at speed, straight into a black car.People run out of nearby shops to help, and the driver of the struck motor gets out, but he narrowly misses being hit by the car which lurches around him.It goes front first into another car on the road, reverses and spin, before spinning back off the road again and reversing another time off the road, crashing a fifth time.Onlookers go to help - but the car zooms forward a final time, across the road and appears to hit a wall.The accident took place in Handsworth, Birmingham, on November 3.A local man, 42, said: "The police said it was a 70-year-old man."My friend, who was in the accident, said when the guy came to a stop, the guy's foot was still on the accelerator."My friend took his foot off."He had some kind of medical issue."It's a bit of a crazy situation.  "Four cars were damaged in total, including the man's.  And he hit three walls."He walked away from it though.  It was very lucky."A spokesman for West Midlands Ambulance Service said: "We were called to reports of a road traffic collision on Headingley Road at 1.53pm on November 3rd, one ambulance attended the scene. "On arrival we discovered a car that had collided with three stationary cars and a wall. "We treated one patient at the scene, a man, who was the driver of the car before taking him to City Hospital for further assessment."West Midlands Police said officers attended for traffic purposes.
