TWO fire crews were dispatched to Paisley St on Monday morning after a Honda Accord caught fire.
Footscray station officer Dean Gould said a woman was driving to work about 8.50am when she lost control of the brakes and steering and ended up on the wrong side of the road.
The engine compartment subsequently burst into flames.
Firefighters managed to contain the fire to the engine compartment. No one was injured.
“I think they might be able to fix it,” Mr Gould said.
“It was very lucky there was no other vehicles at the intersection at the time.”
