The driver flew to Ullevål hospital after driving downhill in Etnedal

The accident happened on Monday night on county road 33 at Tonsånslinna. The driver was alone in the car and no other vehicle was involved.

– The accident happened just before a turn, and the car drove out of the road and into a mountain wall. The emergency services were contacted by passers-by who took the person out of the car. The driver was conscious all the time and health personnel have had contact with the person, says operations manager Kjartan Waage in the Inland police district to NTB.

According to the police, the driver sustained serious injuries, and the person in question was flown by air ambulance to Oslo University Hospital at Ullevål.
