Fortunate Escape for Driver

A 31 year old man escaped with only minor injuries last night when his vehicle overturned into a ditch in Industria North.

According to the driver of the Toyota Corolla he allegedly misjudged the bend and lost control over his vehicle. The vehicle crashed through a barbwire fence situated next to the railway line.

When paramedics arrived on the scene, they found the overturned vehicle in the ditch and the man lying on the opposite side of the embankment. Fortunately he sustained only minor injuries and was immobilised on the scene. He was treated for a possible spinal injury.

According to the driver, who was alone in the vehicle at the time, he always travels that road and do not understand what exactly happened. He is in a stable condition in the Flora Clinic.

It took towing some time to remove the vehicle from the ditch.
