Police: Drivers crashed in empty subway car in Queens

Her night got completely out of control.

Two people, one of whom was wearing a pink shower cap and hot pants, sneaked onto an empty train at a subway station in Queens – and after a brief joyride, caused an accident, police said.

The flashily dressed duo were caught on camera strolling through an empty train car at Briarwood station just after midnight last Thursday, according to footage released by the New York Police Department late Tuesday.

The “two unidentified individuals entered and operated an unoccupied train, resulting in a collision and damage to the train,” the NYPD said in a call for information about the pair, who fled on foot.

It was not immediately clear how they got on the train or how they could operate it.

The NYPD did not immediately respond to The Post's request for comment on how long the train was in operation or the extent of the damage.

However, there were no injuries in the accident, police said.

Police described the most conspicuous person as a woman of medium build dressed entirely in pink, including a head covering, crop top, hot pants and bag.

The other was a slim man wearing a blue tank top and red shorts and carrying a black backpack.
