A MAN from Dalton miraculously escaped unhurt after his car flipped onto its roof on the A590.

Police were called to the Elliscales roundabout on the A590 between Dalton and Askam after a member of the public reported seeing a car on its roof.

The Seat Ibiza had collided with signage on the roundabout, causing significant damage.

The driver was arrested by police on suspicion of drink-driving.

No other vehicles were involved.

Leon Menzler, 24, of Ann Street, Dalton, has since been charged with driving with excess alcohol and is due to appear before Furness Magistrates' Court on January 3.
