One fire appliance attended an RTC where one vehicle was in a precarious position on an embankment, and two elderly occupants were unable to get out of the vehicle. Crews arrived to make the vehicle safe, and requested a second appliance for the winching capability. Both casualties were released with assistance from fire crews, and the winch was used to move the vehicle to safety. Duty of care was left with the recovery company.
