A Tesla driver involved in a motorway crash wet himself at the roadside after giving a breath test, police said.

Police were called just before 4am on Saturday after a report that the blue Tesla had been involved in a crash with a black BMW.

The incident happened as the two cars were travelling anti-clockwise on the M25 near junction 23 in Hertfordshire.

No injuries were reported.

Officers attended the scene and a 63-year-old man from London was arrested and charged with failing to provide a specimen for analysis.

He is due to appear at St Albans Magistrates’ Court on 7 July.

Traffic police from the Bedfordshire, Cambridgeshire and Hertfordshire, posted on Twitter that they had come across the Tesla driver after he had been out for "a night of clubbing".

It is understood he wet himself at the roadside after being breathalysed by police.

One Twitter user commented below the BCH Roads Policing tweet: "RPU is soooo glamorous."
