All Safe Following RTC

All passengers involved in a road traffic collision earlier today (August 20) were able to exit their vehicles without assistance.

Shortly after 10am this morning fire crews from Rushen, Malew and the Duty Officer were dispatched by the ESJCR IOM – Emergency Services Joint Control Room to a two vehicle RTC in the south of the island.

The emergency service confirmed that nobody was trapped and all passengers were able to exit their vehicles without assistance.

Incident information from Station Officer David Cowley said: “Due to the one of the vehicles being electric, crews remained in attendance to isolate the emergency cut off and monitor the temperature of the batteries until such time that the vehicle was recovered from scene.”
