It was confirmed that no injuries were sustained in the crash although sheriff John Budensiek was quick to emphasise this “could’ve been a lot worse”. Here’s everything we know. How did the crash happen?

Sheriff Budensiek gave a full rundown of the police’s initial investigation into the crash during his press conference. A truck with a pressure-washing apparatus was driving down South Beach Road shortly before 2pm and was turning into a driveway, slowing down, the driver of that vehicle saw a dark-coloured Land Rover coming to overtake him at speed. The driver tried to edge off the side of the road to avoid a collision but with this being a small two-lane street, there was “no shoulder” for the vehicle to move into.

The driver of the Land Rover, identified as Woods, then swerved last minute to himself avoid a crash but clipped the end of the trailer carrying the pressure cleaning apparatus, causing him to list to the side and roll onto the driver’s door before skidding down the road.
