The car was being driven down Hermitage Street, Rishton
A van was set on fire in Rishton.
Fire crews from Hyndburn were called at 22.46 on Saturday after receiving reports of a vehicle on fire in Talbot Street.
It is believed the van, a Fiat Doblo, had been driving down Hermitage Street before it crashed into several other vehicles, then drove round the corner onto Talbot Street.
A spokesperson for the fire service said: "CCTV in the area captured what happened and two people were seen jumping out of the van before setting it on fire.
