An OAP was injured and subsequently rushed to hospital last week after the mobility scooter he was driving, crashed into a chauffeur driven limousine.
The accident happened in the Mansfield area of Nottinghamshire after the two vehicles crashed into each other at the Fourways Junction on the A60 on Friday afternoon.
The emergency services were quick to respond, arriving on the scene 5 minutes after the crash. The pensioner, believed to have been in his 70’s was admitted to hospital. His condition is not yet known.
Major delays were experienced by motorists in the area as a result of the accident. The junction where the crash occurred was cordoned off her several hours as the emergency services and police attended and cleared the scene.
One eyewitness described hearing a bang as the black Dodge limousine, which was decorated in white ribbons, struck the mobility scooter. The elderly rider of the scooter was then seen laid out on road as several motorists came to his aid, calling the emergency services on their mobile phones.
It is not known if there were any passengers travelling onboard the luxury black stretch limo at the time of the crash.
A spokesperson for the police said no one had been arrested as a result of the accident.
