Taxi Driver Injured In Road Accident Airlifted To Hospital

Monday 25th June 2012

A taxi driver was airlifted to hospital on Saturday 23rd June after a road accident which resulted in the taxi leaving the road and coming to a stop in a nearby field.

Derbyshire, Leicestershire & Rutland Air Ambulance were able to land in a field adjacent to the incident, which took place in Chesterfield.

The 52-year-old male was immobilised on a long board stretcher and had a neck collar applied, before being airlifted to Sheffield Northern General Hospital where a trauma team were waiting to provide him with further treatment.

A spokesperson from DLRAA said: "Due to the nature of the casualty's injuries, it was necessary to take him to a hospital that had a trauma centre. By taking casualties to hospital via Air Ambulance, we can ensure that they receive the most appropriate treatment for their injuries that they need, as quickly as possible."

Much as I hope he's ok, it does look like too many hours again doesn't it.

And how do you work that out?

Would you bet against him?

That would depend on time of day, Weather Conditions and if there was any other vehicles Involved.

All we can discern for sure from the above article is that a vehicle left the road and not much else.
