A spokesman added: “Ambulance crews were in attendance and confirmed there were no major injuries.
“The decision was made to remove the driver's door to gain good access to the casualty and release the seat belt that was holding them in place. The casualty was extracted and placed on a stretcher before being taken to hospital for a check-up.”
