Prince William helps family in car crash
A SLOUGH family had royalty to thank for rescuing them from a car crash.
The three siblings must have thought they had concussion when Prince William stopped his car after spotting the crash in West Drayton, West London.
But Clarence House insists the shock of the crash hadn't made them imagine things and the second-in-line for the throne had indeed come to their aid.
A spokesman said: "Prince William and the occupants of the car came across the aftermath of the accident shortly after it occurred. His fellow passengers stopped the car and got out to make sure they were ok and called an ambulance."
The Prince stayed in his car for security reasons while his guards made sure they were comfortable.
A national newspaper said they helped the injured driver, 23, her sister, 26, and brother 28 and waited until the emergency services arrived.
One patient was treated overnight at Wexham Park Hospital after the accident in Bath Road on Wednesday, November 12.
