Caravan owners have been warned to be extra cautious when driving in windy conditions, after a woman was injured when her caravan and tow-car rolled over on a motorway.
The incident took place on Sunday morning (June 19th), when a gust of wind flipped over the woman’s Land Rover and the caravan it was towing, Thisisbath.co.uk reports.
Shocked motorists saw the tourer and towcar roll over several times on the M4 westbound, near the entry sliproad at junction 18.
The driver, a woman in her 40s, was later freed from her car by the emergency services and was taken to hospital, where she received treatment for a gash to the head.
Fortunately, local police believe that she will recover fully, and added that she was conscious throughout.
Richard Crocker, a police officer who was at the scene, said: “It was a nasty head injury. However, once she has been stitched up, she should make a full recovery.”
