Taxi driver escapes injury after vehicle overturns February 03, 2012 A driver was rescued from his taxi after it overturned outside a hotel. The 43-year-old's black cab collided with a fence and landed on its side near the Bowdon Hotel, Langham Road, on Thursday night. Firefighters from Sale and Altrincham stations lowered a ladder into the taxi so the driver could climb out. He was treated at the scene for shock but declined hospital treatment. Police were called and the road was closed for a short time. The Highways Agency removed debris from the road. Rob Macauley, watch manager at Altrincham fire station, said: "When we arrived the driver was conscious and breathing. "He was standing in the footwell and we lowered a ladder down so he could climb out." Source; http://menmedia.co.uk/manchesterevening ... -overturns |
