"We rescued her from the vehicle, mopped up some spilt oil and rendered the scene safe," the spokesman added.
The driver, a woman in her 70s, underwent a breath test which returned a negative reading.
A spokeswoman for Central West Police District said the car "went through a safety barrier" down a ramp before the car crashed into a wall.
