A motorcyclist and a car collided just 300 yards from the spot where two men were killed in a smash two weeks earlier.

A silver Peugeot 206 and a white Suzuki motorcycle collided at the junction of Shakespeare Drive and Middleton Stoney Road, near Bicester, on Wednesday last week.

The learner motorcyclist was taken to the John Radcliffe Hospital, Oxford, with a suspected broken wrist.

The driver of the Peugeot was uninjured, but both vehicles were badly damaged. Police, a fire crew and an ambulance attended.

The accident came just 16 days after two Bicester men were killed on the road. James McCabe, 21, of Hemingway Drive, and Adam Davis, 19, of Oxlip Leyes, died when their car left the road at the junction near Howes Lane.
