Broadhurst Green resident Luke Anderton posted on Facebook page Chase TV the moped rider sustained “a nasty hit on his bike”.

He added: “A group of us stayed with him and was checked by first responders on site and didn't seem to have any major injuries, was talking to his friend and was more upset about his new bike getting totaled.

“Lucky it was not more serious, but the lad seemed fine.”

The road has since cleared.
