Three people have been hospitalised after a four-car crash on the A35 in Morcombelake.
The incident occurred at 2:30pm on Thursday (16 January) and resulted in the closure of the roads in both directions.
Police and ambulance crews were called to the scene with three people being taken to hospital with neck and back injuries although they are not thought to be serious.
The vehicles involved included a blue Ford Fiesta, registered in Uplyme, a green Mazda Motor-Caravan registered in Brighton, a silver Vauxhall Vectra from the Lyme Regis and a black Skoda Yeti from Honiton.
A spokesman for the South West Ambulance Service said: “We were called to a four car road traffic collision at 2.41pm today. Four cars were involved in the collision and three casualties were taken to hospital complaining of neck and back injuries.”
The A35 has since been reopened with traffic running smoothly once again.
