Bristol this evening, Monday, May 19.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh \">The car crashed into the fence along St Anne&#8217;s Park Road, near the junction of Newbridge Road in <a

the fence.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh \">Passers-by have been overheard telling the people who were in the car that they cannot park there.<\/p>\n<p

wasn&#8217;t involved, but the car has nearly gone through a fence leading to the main Bristol to London railway line.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh \">Pictures taken at the scene show the car has smashed into the metal fence and caused very significant damage.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\"

road.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh \">The road is not blocked and traffic is able to safely pass the car, but the pavement will be impassable until the vehicle is recovered.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/0_WhatsApp-Image-2025-05-19-at-184117-4jpeg.jpg\" alt=\"Car crash on St Anne's Park
