Edinburgh roadworks van used for collisions smashed up in crash at busy junction

A BEAR Scotland Trunk Road Incident Support van was involved in a road traffic collision with another vehicle while travelling on a main road on the outskirts of Edinburgh on Sunday.

A picture posted online showed the TRISS van, which assists police at the scene of traffic collisions, with its front smashed up after colliding with a red vehicle in South Queensferry.

BEAR Scotland, who are in charge of maintaining and managing main roads throughout the country, often also deal with roadworks and closures for essential repairs while also assisting traffic management if there is a breakdown or crash.
