Weather warning to motorists after smashes
FIRE chiefs are urging Rotherham motorists to take extra care on frozen roads, after dealing with two serious traffic accidents in one morning.
One woman had to be freed from her car after it crashed into a ditch on Brampton Lane, Ulley, at around 9am on Friday.
Firefighters removed the vehicle’s back seats so they could pull the driver out on a spine board before sending her to Rotherham Hospital.
