A TRAPPED driver had to be cut from a car after it skidded off the road and ploughed into a large group of bushes.

Firefighters from Andover and Overton rescued the driver, who became trapped following the crash on Andover Road, Micheldever, this morning.

Crews were called to the scene shortly after 7.45am after the car became lodged in vegetation at the side of the 60mph road.

One person was hauled from the vehicle and treated for minor injuries by paramedics.
