Lucky Escape: No Serious Injuries Reported

Distracted Driving Blamed for Smash
The collision highlights the deadly risks of distracted driving. Thames Valley Police warned on social media: “The importance of not being distracted whilst driving is clearly shown in this picture. Remember to leave plenty of space between you and the vehicles in front and don’t be distracted.”
