He said: ‘There was this loud crunch as the car bounced off the side of the lorry and hit another car. I was lucky not to have been caught up in it.’
‘The car seemed pretty badly damaged.’
A spokesman from South Central Ambulance said: ‘We’ve got an ambulance crew at the scene of that incident but I’ve not had any report back currently – it came into us via a 999 call from a member of the public at 4.35pm as a two vehicle collision outside the IBM building on Western Road, with everyone involved able to get themselves out of the vehicles.'
