A DRIVER had a 'lucky escape' after his back wheel locked up and caused him to career off the road on the Obridge in Taunton.
There have been some short delays on the Obridge following the incident in which a man suffered minor injuries and was treated by the ambulance.
The crash happened just before 9am this morning.
The driver's wife, who was at the scene of the incident but not involved in the crash, said: "My husband was driving and then one of the back wheels locked up and black smoke appeared and ended up swerving off the road.
"He had a bit of a lucky escape, it could have been a lot worse."
