I was passing not long after this terrible accident happened. Whatimpresses me no end is the sheer professionalism of the emergency service guys and girls, the Paramedics were all over the badly wrecked car, along with the firemen who cut the roof off so the driver could be freed. The Paramedics took the driver off on their stretcher and was wisked off to hospital from what I saw. Couldn't do their jobs - must see some terrible stuff.
