Articulated lorry slides off road into ditch
11:29am Wednesday 7th May 2008
By Sian Davies »
AN articulated lorry ended up down the embankment of the A34 this morning.
Traffic was disrupted on the southbound carriageway between Three Maids Hill and Easton where the accident happened just after 9am.
Firefighters from Winchester were called to deal with the accident after reports the driver was trapped but on arrival they found he had managed to escape without serious injury.
Police were also in attendance to manage the traffic while the wreckage was recovered.

as a retired truck driver who had a similar breakdown with a lorry on this road,I can only say that everything was still moving UNTIL the busies arrived.
Don't you realise most accidents are probably caused by badly driven lorries ?

"Police were also in attendance to manage the traffic while the wreckage was recovered" Isn't that what the Highways Agency Patrols were introduced to manage, freeing up our Police officers?
