Brighton road closed after car flip

A Brighton road has closed this afternoon after a car flipped and ended on its side.

Both the road and pavements on Southover Street have been cordoned off while police officers work at the scene.

The incident happened at about 3.30pm.

A spokeswoman for South East Coast Ambulance Service said: “We were called by Sussex Police to reports of a road traffic collision on Southover Street, Brighton shortly after 3.30pm today.

“Ambulance crews attended, assessed, and treated one patient on scene who was then discharged from our care.”

Sussex Police has been approached for comment.

    I’m impressed he’s facing upwards. Trying to work out the physics on that one!

      The bright white Fiat is so small the driver didn’t see it and drove up it… you can see the bent bumper. And also alternate photos on that other paper’s website.

      I always find it impressive that someone can actually roll a car in the street. And on one of the steepest streets in the town where they can’t have been going that fast.

        Oh, that makes sense. That’s got to have been scary for the driver of the Fiat to see that overshadowing your windscreen. That could have been much worse.

    When does a crash become a “flip”? It’s a word that undermines the seriousness of a collision.
