Villagers getting ready for bed were stunned when they heard a 'big bang' and realised a car had crashed into a fence on a 'manic' road where road traffic collisions are a 'regular occurrence'. The latest collision in Burton Joyce happened in Nottingham Road, near its junction with Maris Drive, in the early hours of Saturday (May 7).
Fortunately no one was injured but the car involved remains cordoned off with visible damage caused to the fences of two different houses. One of the homeowners whose fence was damaged said the road was "getting more dangerous" with separate incidents reported in quick succession.
The man, who asked not to be named, said he hadn't had chance to process his emotions. “I think my camera caught a police guy at 1.30am. They left a card to call back," the homeowner said.
