Langleys MP Mike Penning has given an eye witness account on the terrorist incident outside the Houses of Parliament.
Several shots were fired at around 2.35pm moments after a loud bang was heard inside the Palace estate.
Three bodies were visible on the floor and the Palace was placed on an immediate lock down.
Hemel Hempstead MP Mike Penning, who represents the Langelys, is currently in lock down in the Ministry of Defence.
Mr Penning said: "I can currently see Westminster Bridge and I can see all the people being treated by paramedics.
"I believe the driver mounted the curb on the bridge and then swerved to crashed into the entrance of the Palace.
"They were stopped by the guards but the guards are not armed."
Mr Penning also said armed police arrived who are trained to stop someone getting inside the Palace.
He said: "My colleagues in the Palace are in lock down which means the doors are locked and they cannot get out.
"Provisions are provided for them and it is only when the inside of the Palace is secured that they will be let out.
"My thoughts are with those who have been injured and are currently being treated by paramedics.
"Everyone should not panic and listen to the emergency services at this time."
