If you are telling the true version of events you have nothing to worry about.

I have to wait to give my statement to e police , but yes he did purposely drive in there
Sounds like he was trying to escape an attacker. Or maybe he was attacking Holly? Or he was purposely trying to get his car written-off for an insurance payout.
Holly has added nothing to this story other than casting suspicion on the guy that had to be rescued.

Could it be possible that it was Holly who caused the accident ? If she has not at fault surely she would be more forthcoming with her version of events. Its all very strange.
