Learner driver flips and crashes Audi on road between Longridge and Ribchester

The car crashed and overturned on a sharp bend near Angels restaurant in Fleet Street Lane, Ribchester yesterday afternoon (August 27).

Ribble Valley officers and ambulance crews were called to the scene, but the driver had escaped from the car unscathed.

Police shared a picture on social media showing the black car on its roof with clothes spilling from the open boot.

Police said the driver, who did not have a full licence, has been reported for motoring offences.

A Ribble Valley Police spokesman said: "Longridge Neighbourhood Policing Team and Tac Ops have today attended a road traffic collision at Ribchester.

"Luckily nobody was seriously injured.

"This is not the way to negotiate a bend, otherwise your car will park itself in it's own parking space.

"Driver has been reported for offences, including not having a full driving licence.

"The driver clearly needs many more lessons."
