After driver tried to avoid the seagulls, car gets stuck and covered with dirt

Drivers who make unintentional detours to avoid birds were punished when their car was covered in mud in a nearby field.

Kelly Webster’s car became stuck in the dirt when her partner Michael Coates (39), and Jorja Kelly, daughter, went to buy milk for New Year’s Day.

They had been trying to avoid seagulls and veered off the path – when Ms Webster’s Toyota Corolla ended up stuck in a muddy field.

Mr Coates and Jorja desperately tried to get the car out of the mud in Bolton, Greater Manchester and even used an old carpet in their effort – but nothing could get it moving.

Despite the lack of success – and the extremely muddy vehicle – the pair found the whole thing hilarious.

Ms Webster, 36, said: “The car came off the path when they tried to avoid seagulls and into the mud and as much as he tried to get it out he couldn’t.

“I got a phone call saying car is stuck, but don’t worry we are having lots of fun.”

After Mr Coates and his friend returned the following day, they realized they were not getting anywhere. They had to call someone from a nearby farm for help.

The car was stuck for two days before it was rescued by a local garage – and locals who saw it while it was stuck thought the car was stolen and had been dumped.

Ms Webster, of Bolton, Greater Manchester added: “I hadn’t seen the state of the car then, when all of a sudden I was on Facebook and my car was all over it.

“When I saw the posts and comments I couldn’t stop laughing and to all you Toyota Corolla haters, it’s actually a fast car.

“I am still waiting to get it back so I rely on lifts at this moment and had to take taxis.”
