Tunstall Road

Massive smash just after the roundabout. Car on it's roof and another written off.
Road is blocked by police and ambulance there, hope everyone is ok.
 
Anyone know the type of cars involved.

Not exactly sure but was a black car similar to fiesta and another that had smashed into a wall from what I could tell. Sorry I can’t give any more info.
Top or bottom roundabout?

The one next to the pharmacy / queen Alex rd. accident is just beside the entrance to st aidans school in Tunstall rd.

Saw the pics on the echo site and clicked on its where my mate lives, text her and it’s her car that’s been wrote off, so lucky cos she was in the car five minutes beforehand.

And the driver has been arrested for drunk driving. Absolute scum.
 
Hit stick on it just after it happened and had to spin round. Came back that way an hour and a half later and the road was still closed. Hope all are okay. That roundabout is bad at the best of times never mind when people fly round it
 
I was driving along N. Hylton Road at around 1:30 this afternoon when a little black hatchback came screaming past me doing around 70mph, wonder if it was the same car. I've got it on dashcam but the reg plate isn't very clear.

Doesn’t help either when the driver was pissed and has been arrested for drunk driving.
 
That bottom roundabout is also really bad for people who park outside the florist and shop.

People who park there can just pu out on people on the roundabout. But, it must be hard to pull away from when people are blasting round.

I’ve had someone pull out on me on my mountain bike there. Managed to just about stop and go sideways into the a car. The bloke in the car started pointing and screaming at me, which resulted in me losing my rag. If he’d apologised and said he hadn’t seen me (on my orange bike with bright red & white jersey on) I’d have accepted it. He then drove off before I got off my bike. Slight scratch on my bar end, his car had a handle bar and pedal imprint left in the front and rear door.
 
There's a car comes flying about round our way I keep expecting to see in a story like this. It'll happen one day the way he goes on.
