Watford's ring road was left temporarily blocked because of a crash.
Two cars collided at the junction with Lower High Street yesterday afternoon (June 8).
Emergency services were called at around 4.30pm to reports of a crash between a VW Golf and a Mercedes E350.
Paramedics were sent to the scene along with fire crews from Watford and Garston.
Hertfordshire Fire & Rescue tweeted that one person had to be freed by firefighters, although their condition is not thought to be serious because police only reported slight injuries were sustained by those in the crash.
