The driver, understood to be in his 30s or 40s, crashed after swerving to avoid another car at around 8.22am, a police spokesman said.

He was not hurt in the smash, but his car – thought to be a Renault – is understood to be a write-off.

Police were called but did not attend the scene, at the roundabout where Westcliffe Drive becomes Layton Road, and were unable to give any more information.
