A DRIVER jumped from his burning car in Keysborough on Sunday night.
Local CFA crews attended a car fire on Perry Road just before 9pm with reports a man was trapped inside.
When they arrived, they found out the man had leapt from his car when we saw smoke and then flames coming from under the dashboard.
Without a driver, the 4WD had rolled into a ditch.
The driver was not injured.
Police blocked the road until the fire was contained and the car was towed from the scene.
