MOTORISTS had a lucky escape when a car fell off a transporter on a busy Bolton road this morning.
A Rover 214 tumbled sideways off the lower deck of the transporter as it drove along St Helens Road towards Bolton at 7am.
The car landed on its roof at the side of the transporter and a police spokesman said it is lucky it did not hit any other vehicle.
It took 20 minutes to clear the road. Police are investigating the incident.
