Shortly after 11 p.m. on Thursday night Rescue 98 was requested to assist Upper Providence Township units on an accident scene. The crash began on eastbound 422 where the vehicle went off the roadway and toward Ashenfelter Road. Upper Providence Fire units determined that access to the vehicle and removing the driver would be easier from Ashenfelter Road and using an additional crew.

Royersford personnel assisted in what is called a low angle recue to get the driver of the vehicle from the accident scene. Local agencies often train together on scenarios such as this to go smoothly and quickly for those involved. The driver of the vehicle was transported to the hospital by ground ambulance. The circumstances of the crash are being investigated by Pennsylvania State Police.
