The emergency services were called to the roundabout at the north end of Lord Street this morning after a man lost control of his vehicle and crashed. Diversions are in operation. The man is being treated for what are thought to be minor injuries.

Contender of the year for shortest distance callout!

They should make drivists take tests, have insurance and pay road tax. That would put a stop to this carnage.

Mr PNP - why did you "like" a post about an accident?

Weird!

I 'like' to be informed about traffic incidents.....Without these reports, we'd never know what road-users have been up to.

This car appears to be scent-marking its territory!

We all know what road users are up to. Cars and bikes driving normally, cars and bikes making mistakes.

No... you're just weird!

You'd like embarrassing motoring incidents to be kept out of the news?

N.B. Would be a plan to paint chevrons onto local roundabouts, to reduce incidence of road-users colliding with them.

Can we have embarrassing cycling incidents included too?

Can't be arsed about knowing about every minor road incident. Haven't people got better things to do?

Oh look, little Johnny's cut his finger at No. 27, we need to take a photo and put it on the web!

Get a life!

I heard he swerved to avoid a cyclist who had got his panniers caught in his bikes spokes.

I find it weird judging what has happened without knowing at least some facts. Could be an idiot drive, could have avoided a worse accident, could be someone fallen ill at the wheel.

It could also have been a skid, after all the roads were icy yesterday morning. I guess we’ll just have to wait for PNP’s verdict.
