A DRIVER had a lucky escape after crashing and flipping upside down into a roadside ditch.

Police officers were called to a country lane in Aylesbury Vale to reports of a crash this morning (January 26).

The roads policing team assisted in the incident.

Police said the driver "was lucky not to have serious injuries." 

However, a warning has been issued to drivers to be careful when driving on minor roads as they still could be icy.

Thames Valley Police wrote on Twitter: "Minor roads are not gritted and still icy in places so take care and slow down."
