Car Crash near Brookland
On the A259 between Rye & Brookland
Any one else noticed this wrecked car tucked under the trees on the corner at the western end of the Brookland straight? Looks to have been there a few days but have seen no press or police reports about it.
The accident appears to have taken place at almost the exact spot as a similar accident on 31 October 2014.
The wrecked car is off the road with police tape and some of the damage to road furniture already repaired.

Update
Jane Barrie informed us that the accident happened on 23 October and the driver escaped with just a cut on the head!
