One woman, who took photos of the crash scene, said: “I am wanting to share these images from a car accident on Sheffield Road, Woodhouse Mill, just outside Aston Fence School.
“If this accident had happened on a school day there would have been children dead.”
She is calling for Sheffield Council to install traffic calming measures and to lower the speed limit on the road, which she described as “horrendously busy”.
“Something needs to be done to make this road safer.”
