Driver extricated from vehicle after a horror crash on the N1 south near the Rigel Avenue off-ramp

On Saturday afternoon Emer-G-Med Paramedics responded to the scene of a serious motor vehicle collision on the N1 south near the Rigel Avenue off-ramp.

On arrival on scene a luxury SUV was found to have collided at high speed into the rear of a stationary articulated vehicle before overturning and coming to a rest on its roof.

The driver, a male aged in his thirties, was found severely entrapped in the wreckage with serious injuries.

Emergency Care Practitioners worked fervently to stabilize him whilst he was cut free using the Jaws-of-life.

Once free he was taken by ambulance to a nearby hospital for the definitive care that he required.
