The E250 on its roof this morning
A DRIVER had a lucky escape when his car rolled over on a county road this morning.
The accident happened just before 7.35am on the B4197 near Great Witley when the silver Mercedes E250 ended up on its roof.
The driver called emergency services, and police plus an ambulance service rapid response vehicle raced to the scene.
The paramedic treated the driver for cuts and bruises on the scene, but decided he did not need hospital treatment.
The Highways Agency was called out to clean up an oil spill.
Police were investigating the cause of the accident, which did not involve any other vehicles.

Another case of speeding! When will these people ever learn!
Does it say the oil spill was a result of the accident for example ?

It doesn't say it wasn't a result of a fuel spill either!! There actually seems very light damage to the car so please tell me where the fuel/oil is likely to leak from?!?
