Rutland Police are warning of the perils of greasy roads
as heavy rain hit the county last night. A car ended up on its side on one of the county's rural roads after the driver had apparently hit a slippery patch. The roads were especially greasy after such a long period without any persistent rain. Those in the car escaped without injury.
