Police at the site of the most recent accident on Grange Road, Rossington

One resident said, “It looked like it happened on Grange Lane, right outside the family doctor’s office, and it looked like it damaged the fence. The car ended at a 90 degree angle from the road.

“It looked like it had pink wedding flags on the side and the airbags appeared to be inflated.

“There is another accident along Grange Road – and this is said to be an area with a speed limit of 20 mph.

“I can imagine at least three accidents that we have seen on this stretch of road in the past few months, and one more not much later.

“There are two schools here – it’s a busy street.”

In a statement, South Yorkshire Police said: “The police were called today (Tuesday, November 10th) at 11:50 am after reports of a road collision in Grange Lane, New Rossington.

“Upon arrival, officers found a gray Range Rover Sport on its side that had collided with a bush.

“The driver of the car was unharmed.”
