A WOMAN climbed out of her boot unhurt after her car flipped onto its side.

Police, fire and ambulance services were called to the crash in Alfred Street at around 1pm yesterday.

It was thought to have occurred after the woman clipped two parked cars.

The woman, aged in her late teens or early twenties, was assisted by passing motorists who helped her clamber out of the boot before the emergency services arrived.

One driver said: “By the time I pulled over someone else had moved her back seat down, so she was able to climb out of the boot.

“It looked to me like she had come down from the mini roundabout too fast and had swerved to try and get the car straight, which had flipped it.

“I could not see any damage to any of the other parked cars or to the side of her car which wasn’t in the road.”

The woman was checked over by paramedics at the scene but did not require any further treatment.
