The female driver of the car, which was badly damaged in the crash, was taken to a nearby hospital emergency department “as a priority” the London Ambulance Service said in a statement.

Two other passengers were treated at the scene.

The London Road, on which the accident happened, was closed after the accident but has since reopened.
