A 74-year-old woman whose car crashed in New Zealand initially thought the vehicle's airbag had inflated but later realised that a horse had gone through her windscreen.
Catherine Lawrence suffered facial bruising and an eye injury and her car was written off in the collision with the horse in the Tasman region of the South Island.
She was hit in the face by the horse's hooves before it landed with its head on the back seat and its body on the front passenger seat, the New Zealand Herald reported on Friday.
"I thought the body was the airbag that had gone off,'' Lawrence said.
The horse was killed instantly in the collision.
Lawrence was able to get out of the car but was treated in hospital for facial injuries.
The horse was one of four that had broken their way through electric fences after being spooked.
The other three were safely rounded up.
