Police, ambulance and fire crews were sent after the accident happened just after 8pm and a large crowd of people rushed to the scene to try and help both drivers.

The first person on the scene was Cherysh Nolan who pulled the driver to safety amid fears the vehicle was going to catch fire.

She said the driver was screaming with her to get her out.

She posted to say she tried her best to right the overturned car, but wasn't able to.

Both people received treatment by ambulance crews.

A police spokesman said: "One man has been taken to hospital and significant damage has been caused to roadside furniture including railings and a junction box.

"Road closures are currently in place and officers remain at the scene."

A 33-year-old man from Doncaster has been arrested on suspicion of drink-driving and dangerous driving.

He has since been released pending further enquiries.
