Gary Ward was travelling on the A817 when the crash happened, leaving firefighters forced to cut the 58-year-old out of his mangled car as he was unable to break free.
A driver has made an appeal to find the Good Samaritans who rushed to help him after he miraculously escaped a horror car crash.
But incredible pictures of the wreckage from the crash scene show just how close he came to being seriously hurt. The occupants of the other car - a woman and child - thankfully escaped without injury but where taken to hospital to be checked over, police said. “I tried but was unable to get out of the car. I was aware that people were there and heard someone ask about an ambulance.”
"I do remember a very kind man in a black jacket that was very reassuring, but there were others. I was a bit dazed, to say the least, someone found my phone and my glasses, although I’m not sure who.” Gary, who is from Huddersfield, West Yorkshire, was taken to the Royal Alexandra Hospital in Paisley for treatment and was discharged four days later.
“I have always thought Helensburgh was a lovely place in a beautiful setting, but it is clearly blessed with lovely people too.”
