Rescue Care spokesperson, Garrith Jamieson says the driver escaped with minor injuries after yesterday's crash.
"Medics assessed him on scene and stabilised him before transporting him to a nearby hospital for the further care that he required. No other vehicles were involved fortunately, as it was seen and witnessed that the truck came around the corner and [the driver] lost control before the trailer overturned and then the truck went across the road," Jamieson says.
