A mum was left fuming when an argument between her children led to the handbrake of her brand-new car being let off – and causing it to crash.
Ashleigh Fell, 37, from Lancashire, was searching for her bag in the back of her car when her two daughters were arguing over who could sit in the front seat.
Layla, 12, and Lilly Rose, nine, had been told to stop and behave but they ignored their mum, much to her frustration.
As the argument escalated, Layla attempted to jump over into the back of the car.
But in doing so, the she knelt on the handbrake and sent the car rolling backwards with both front doors open.

This caused both doors to break and to knock Lily Rose over and fall into a pile of clothes.
‘The car nearly crushed me, and luckily neither of the kids were hurt, otherwise it could have been a lot worse,’ Ashleigh said.
‘I had only just bought the car for £3,000 so I started crying.
‘And the kids have no treats or spending money until it’s fixed or I get a new one.
‘I’m still waiting to hear back from the insurance company though.’
The moment was caught on camera by Ashleigh’s CCTV – which she later shared on TikTok.
Ashleigh added that she believed the car was a write-off, but may take the doors to a scrap yard to salvage something back.
‘I’d be selling their phones, consoles the lot me to pay for the damages or another cheap car! Sorry kids your walking to school from now on!’ said one.
