THIS is not how you car pool.

A 23-year-old man and his two adult passengers started their Easter break with a splash after running off the road and into a residential swimming pool in Sydney’s southwest this morning.

Police say the vehicle was travelling along Partidge Road at Green Valley when it struck a taxi, mounted the kerb and ploughed through a fence on Wilson Road.

Footage of the crash shows the blue sedan fully submerged.

The driver and his passengers escaped without serious injury but police have been unable to locate the second vehicle involved in the incident.

A crane will be required to remove the car from the water over the coming days.

Anyone with information that could assist police, including the identity of the taxi driver, is urged to contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.
