Firefighters from Telford Central were scrambled to Randlay Interchange with the A442 near Telford Town Centre at 9.30pm on Sunday to reports of a crash.

When two fire engines arrived at the scene with an operations officer they found a car that had overturned on a slipway at the junction with the A464 - thankfully no-one was trapped.

The crews made the vehicle safe and sent their incident stop message 12 minutes later.

A spokesman for Shropshire Fire & Rescue Service said: "This incident was one car on roof, no persons trapped, crews made vehicle safe."

Ambulance crews and police also attended, but the driver was unhurt.

A spokesman for West Midlands Ambulance Service said: "We were called at 9.49pm last night to reports of an overturned car on the A442 in Telford. A paramedic officer attended the scene.

"Upon arrival we found the driver of the car. He was assessed and was uninjured. He received self care advice and was discharged at the scene.”
