Police, fire and ambulance crews were called to a 3-car crash in Newport earlier this afternoon (Tuesday).
Resources from Hampshire & Isle of Wight Constabulary and Isle of Wight Ambulance Service were first called to Holyrood Street at around 12:15 following reports of a road traffic collision.
At the scene a BMW X5, Ford Fiesta and Nissan Qashqai have collided with another. How the crash occurred is unknown at this time.
A single fire appliance from Newport has also been sent to Holyrood Street in the interests of scene safety.
Holyrood Street was blocked for a while but has since reopened.
More shit driving on the island
The idiot be on here soon, complaining about speeding.
Talking of idiots Tony.
Speeding is rife on the island,
too many backward motorists on Island Roads.
Nobody, with an ounce of experience and/or awareness of their surroundings, would be driving faster than 20mph MAX along that street! There are too many potential hazards: cars pulling out of nowhere, pedestrians not looking and walking onto the road etc. 20mph would give anyone enough time to do an emergency stop, unless of course the driver is looking at their phone? Intoxicated? Driving too fast for that particular road? Too old to mistake the brake for the accelerator, or poor health that YOU know about? GET OFF THE ROADS!
Well said Graham.
It’s about time Cllr Jordan took a leaf out of
Drakeford’s and Khan’s 20mph rules.
The island is Lawless when it comes to speeding!
The Islands full of young idiots and old gubs who shouldn’t be on the road
Christmas is coming and the rush to ‘Try Hurst’s First’ begins.
