A young motorist was left red-faced after she drove straight into oncoming traffic.

The horror moment was captured on Dignairy Saret de Vos’s dash cam.

Thankfully the mishap didn’t result in a head-on accident.

But she claims it was caused by misleading road markings.

Cafe supervisor Dignairy, 20, admitted her “heart was in her mouth” when she accidentally turned the wrong way.

It happened at White City Circle in Trafford, Manchester, on 17 August.

The nerve-shredding clip shows her setting off from the lights before swinging right – straight into cars coming at her.

Shaken Dignairy quickly realised the blunder, slamming on the brakes before pulling off a three-point turn.

Luckily, sympathetic drivers gave her space to get back on track, as reported by Need To Know.

She said: “I was extremely nervous and literally shaking.

“I knew it could have ended much worse, and I was very grateful it didn’t.

“I was first in line at the traffic lights but instead of paying attention to the oncoming traffic, I focused too much on the road markings.

(Jam Press/@tuflaa)

“I assumed it was the first right and not the next one.

“Many people online agreed the green arrow is a bit misleading.

“It’s reassuring to know I’m not the only one.”

Manchester City Council has been approached for comment.
