A skip wagon owned by Martlands of Burscough careered off High Lane yesterday morning after its driver suffered a medical incident at the wheel.
His truck was embedded in woodland near the Beaufort Care Home after the drama at around 9.40am.
QLocal's Roger Blaxall took these exclusive photos at the scene; the man - who looked to be in his late fifties or early sixties - was being cradled at the roadside as an ambulance was awaited.
No other vehicles which involved in the crash with the scene cleared by 12.50pm.
