Authorities are warning road users of hazardous conditions amid the weather brought by Storm Darcy after a multi-vehicle crash in Headley earlier today (Tuesday, January 9).
Surrey Road Policing Unit (RPU) tweeted out a picture on Tuesday showing the aftermath of the crash, on Mill Lane in Headley, which they said involved six vehicles in total.
Emergency service teams and an ambulance were clearly visible in the image of the collision, in which there were no reported injuries.
If it is, take great care and allow more time for your journey. Go at a slower speed and make sure you are checking around you for other people, or any unseen dangers.

"There are still sections of road with ice. Thankfully no injuries here. #snow," they added.
