A Ministry of Defence support truck collided with a car on the A40 in Oxford.

The green Ministry of Defence truck was travelling from west to east on Sunderland Avenue when it hit a blue Ford Focus on Monday afternoon.

The driver-side glass of the blue Ford Focus car was shattered, the door was caved in around the handle, and the quarter panel was scratched.

Both vehicles pulled off the main 40mph road onto a residential street to assess the damage and contact the driver’s insurance company before Egertons Recovery collected the blue car to take it back its residential property.

The Ministry of Defence has been contacted for a comment.
