A motorist has been reported to court for careless driving following a crash on the A420.

Police closed the main route through Chippenham at about 10.45am this morning (Sunday, 24 April), after they were called to a two-vehicle road traffic collision.

Three ambulances and a paramedic officer were sent to the incident, but luckily, only one person was taken to hospital as a precaution – suffering what are believed to be minor injuries.

A blue Audi RS 6 and a red Vauxhall Grandland X were involved, with one of the drivers being reported for the offence of careless driving — a according to Wiltshire Police.

The road was closed by armed response officers between Willowbank and Bumpers Farm for less than two hours whilst emergency services worked at the scene.
