These were the dramatic scenes this teatime after a serious RTA between a bike and car closed County Road, Ormskirk.
Paramedics treated the biker at the scene of the accident near the junction of County Road and Yew Tree Road.
The rider was in collision with a Honda Civic which was pulling off the driveway and turning right towards Liverpool at around 5pm.
Witnesses say they heard the bike accelerating before there was a massive ‘crump’ – many are still concerned about the speed of traffic, an issue taken up by MP Rosie Cooper who is pressing for a 30mph limit there following multiple accidents and near misses: http://ormskirk.m.qlocal.co.uk/ormsk...t-55025051.htm
The North West Air Ambulance landed nearby by about 5.20pm while two trapped HGV’s travelling to Burscough and Preston were allowed to drive down Yew Tree Road and divert via Burscough Road.
QLocal will update the story tomorrow am. after speaking to the Police PR office at Hutton HQ.
