A woman's in Weston General Hospital with serious pelvic, back and leg injuries after her car collided with a lorry.

The woman, in her forties, had to be cut free from her Vokswagen Polo, after the smash with a forty-four tonne articulated truck on a bend at The Coombe in Blagdon.

The lorry driver was unhurt, and police are now appealing for witnesses.
