Stay vigilant on our roads, is the message from Cambridgeshire police after releasing photos of an overturned HGV.

The vehicle overturned in Shelford’s Road, Earith, Cambridgeshire and the driver was treated for injuries that police say were not life changing.

“Although no offences were identified in this case, we would like to remind you to stay vigilant on the roads and prioritise the safety of yourself and others,” said a Cambridgeshire police post to Policing Huntingdonshire Facebook page.
