A WOMAN was taken to hospital with minor injuries after the car she was driving left the road.

The woman had been travelling in an orange Daewoo Matiz car along the A4133, near Ombersley, but ended up in a field after the vehicle came off the road at about 8.40am, today.

Suzie Fothergill, West Midlands Ambulance Service spokeswoman, said: “We had one female patient who we took to Worcestershire Royal Hospital but I believe only as a precaution.”

The woman’s injuries were described as “minor” by a police spokeswoman and no other vehicles were involved.
