Fire crews in Yorkshire have shared images of a shocking collision that occurred on the A1 (M) on 31st March.
From Richmond Fire Station:
“A1 southbound Catterick
“Incident involved HGV and car which collided and was dragged 100m down the central barrier.
“Amazingly minor injuries but could have been so much worse.
“Traffic is now moving but closures maybe required later for recovery.”
A comment on the post on Facebook said:
“My little girl (2) was in her car seat behind the passenger seat.
“She has been checked and is unharmed and her dad is doing well too. Very lucky to have both got out of this.
“Thanks to the ones that have posted nice comments.”
Richmond Fire Station replied to the comment and said:
“Glad to hear she is all good. She seemed to like the teddy bear we gave her for a bit of comfort.”
The collision certainly shows the risks associated with a collision at high speed.
