A WOMAN in her 20s had to be cut from her car after it rolled onto its roof on the verge of the A39 near Minehead today (February 19).
The Nissan Micra left the road at Bratton shortly after 8am and the driver was trapped by her legs but was conscious and breathing.
Firefighters came from Minehead, Williton, Lynton and Taunton and hydraulic cutting equipment was used to free her from the car.
Paramedics treated her at the scene and she was taken to Musgrove Park Hospital in Taunton. Her injuries were not thought to be life-threatening.
