A London Road

The A329 London Road is said to be blocked in both directions following an accident earlier this afternoon (Picture: Google Maps)

Share on FacebookShare on Twitter

A 19-YEAR-OLD man was arrested on Wednesday afternoon on suspicion of committing several drug and driving offences following a collision which closed a busy Wokingham road.

London Road was blocked in both directions following a prang involving two vehicles between the junctions for Binfield Road and Seaford Road.

Police were called to the scene just before 2.25pm and would later take a man into custody having been arrested on suspicion of driving while over the prescribed limit for drugs, careless driving, driving with no licence, no insurance and for also allegedly being in possession of cannabis.

The man, of no fixed abode, has since been bailed until Monday, April 18.

Those involved in the incident suffered only minor injuries.
