Expectant mother, Corin Stokes, was on her way to Addenbrooke's Hospital when she was forced to deliver her baby girl, the Daily Mail has said.
The 31-year-old mum had to deliver the baby herself in the back seat as her husband continued to drive in shock towards the hospital.
She said: "It's not the sort of thing you expect to happen.
"But I knew she wouldn't be long as my other children have all been early.
"We were driving through Harston and my husband just kept going because he thought we had a bit of time left.
"It was a bit of a shock for him when I leaned forward holding a baby. I wasn't really scared.
"It just happened and adrenaline took over. We'd called ahead to the hospital because it was the middle of the night. But I don't think the message got through because when we got there the hospital was all locked up.
"When the midwife came down she wasn't expecting me to be carrying a baby wrapped in a blanket."
The couple decided to name the baby Lyla May Zafira, adding that 'Zafira' would mark her unique birth.
Mrs Stokes explained: "We'd already decided on May and Paul wanted to add Zafira after what happened.
"It'll certainly be a good story to tell her when she's older."
