A WOMAN sustained chest injuries after her car slid off the road.

The accident happened on the A120 Business Park in Colchester just after 8.45pm yesterday and left the car in bushes.

East of England Ambulance Service spokesman Gary Sanderson said: “A woman who we believe to be in her 20s sustained a chest injury which was non-life threatening and following treatment by the ambulance crew, she was taken to Colchester General for further care.

“The woman wasn’t trapped by the wreckage but she couldn’t free herself as the bushes were surrounding the vehicle.”
