The driver was trapped by his legs.

A North Yorkshire Fire & Rescue Service spokesperson said: “Crews stabilised the vehicle and extricated the male into hands of paramedics.

“He was transported to hospital suffering multiple leg injuries.

“Crews used chocks and blocks to stabilise the vehicle and then used hydraulic cutters, spreaders, reciprocating saw and rams to access vehicle and release male.”
