The rescue helicopter and ambulances were sent.

Incredibly there were no serious injuries to the occupants of the Corolla, a 26-year-old female driver and two passengers aged in their 50s.

The most serious injury suffered by the 10 passengers on the mini bus was a bump on the head.

Police said the crash was “simply a case of the wrong decision at the wrong time”.
