A CAR that collided with two other vehicles in Endeavour Hills last Saturday lost control and landed in Dandenong Creek.
Police and emergency services said the water level of the Dandenong Creek was quite low at the time of the collision and the driver, a 40-year-old man from Endeavour Hills, was lucky to escape unharmed.
The three cars collided about 8.05pm on Heatherton Road, near the Monash Freeway, and another car also drove up an embankment as a result of the accident.
The driver, a 24-year-old Pakenham man, and his two passengers were also unhurt.
The 33-year-old female driver of the other vehicle was also unharmed.
The Narre Warren resident has since been charged with failing to give way.
The Hallam CFA, the Dandenong Rescue team, police and ambulance officers attended.
No one was taken to hospital.
