Residents said a police car and three officers were sent to the scene late this morning after the incident, on a stretch of road locals regard as a local accident blackspot.
The crash happened on Grange Lane, New Rossington, and involved a grey Range Rover which was described as having what appeared to be ‘wedding bunting’ on the sides.

"It looked like it had pink wedding bunting on the side, and the air bags appeared to have inflated.
"It is yet another crash along Grange Road – and this is supposed to be an area with a 20mph speed limit.
"I can think of at least three crashes that we have seen on this stretch of road just in the last couple of months, and another one not much further on.
"There are two schools on here – it’s a busy road.”
