By A Correspondent- A couple that began to get steamy in their small Toyota Yaris were left embarrassed when they accidentally knocked the handbrake and were sent flipping down a hill.

A couple had to be embarrassingly rescued by police after their car flipped during a steamy vehicle encounter.

The randy pair were in the middle of a love-making session in their small Toyota Yaris when they accidentally knocked the handbrake.

In an unfortunate twist of passionate fate, the car ended up rolling down a hill and the couple were left in the vehicle flipped on its side.

Pictures released from Derbyshire Police, which have since gone viral, showed couple’s antics.

One of the shocking photos shows the car on its side in a secluded country road chosen from prying eyes.

The police account tweeted: “At an undisclosed location in Derbyshire the couple occupying this Yaris had parked up and were strengthening their relationship.

“Whilst doing so the handbrake has become disengaged and it rolled down a hill before flipping on its side.

“No injuries. #DriveToArrive”.

One said: “Please practice safe se_x and leave handbrake on.”

Another wrote: “Whoever came up with that one ‘strengthening their relationship’ brilliant!”

A third said: “When I said let’s try a different position, this isn’t what I meant.”
