M62 Accident

Anyone see it tonight? On the M62 between J18-19, I avoided it on the way up but passed it on the westbound carriageway on the way out of Middleton (down to 2 lanes but flowing ok), Eastbound was rammed.

Loads of emergency vehicles there, all I could see was what looked like a rigid with HIAB that’d flattened the central barriers and driven headfirst into the main bridge support :confused: Didn’t look good, god knows what happened as it’s 4 lanes wide there.

seen it passed 4 times doing two prestons it was the support for the mattrix they hit cab was totaly wrecked they must have got out ok or they would have shut the road

Driver thrown through windscreen, taken to hospital with leg pains.
Sounds like a miracle he survived.

Saw the ambulance leaving well in the q If he survived that impact he is one lucky fella.
