I got stuck at the end of Witney Bypass (with Farnborough Boy behind). A colleaugue that was trapped just behind accident said some loon in a Corsa passed him at Eynsham, forced a couple of cars to swerve and then everything came to a standstill near the speed cameras. He got close to the scene to find the corsa crushed and either a small lorry/large van on it’s side at Barnard Gate crossroads. Fireman apparently looked at car and sheeted it over. No word on other driver so far. If anyone’s near Witney, take A415 towards Standlake and Kingston Bagpuize if you’re 18ton gross or under, and others can go A415, left at Hardwick lights and head for Eynsham then rejoin A40 at Lower Road roundabout.
