Help: Firefighters got the duo out

Surrey Roads Police Unit said the young male driver and some friends had been out at a party.

On the way home he lost control of the car, collided with a road sign and the car flipped on to the front bumper.

An investigation is under way.

Crews from Esher and Painshill were called to Aston Road, off Hare Lane, Claygate, to help the people after the car crashed and flipped on to its bonnet, becoming wedged up against a wall.

Three people were already out of the vehicle when they arrived, with two requiring help of specialist equipment to be released.

The South East Coast Ambulance Service and an air ambulance attended and two male passengers were taken to St George’s Hospital by road. One had head and upper leg injuries, the other had lower arm injuries.
