A shocking near miss on Lark Lane has prompted calls for a more permanent and safe solution for outdoor eating and drinking on the famous south Liverpool street.
On Sunday, two diners narrowly escaped a horror crash as they sat outside Maranto's restaurant just before 8pm. Harrowing footage shows the pair jump up and out of the way as a white car crashes into the row of tables outside the venue. The man can be seen being thrown to the floor in the clip.
The incident, which has resulted in a 53-year-old woman being charged, has sparked more calls for an improved scheme on Lark Lane to accommodate outdoor eating and drinking.
