Framed Print of Driver escapes in 100 miles an hour crash at British Empire trophy races. Wel Handley
Driver escapes in 100 miles an hour crash at British Empire trophy races.
Wel Handley had an amazing escape, from death, when driving Freddie Dixons Riley in the 250 mile British Empire Trophy Race at Donington Park, Derby. A few minutes after taking over from Dixon Handley overshot a corner when traveling at 100 miles per hour. The car left the road road, hit a low obstruction and leaping in the air overturned. It righted itself and then turned over and over, to finish up a smoking wreck. Handley was dragged from the driving seat practically unhurt. Wal Handley is renowned as a motor cyclist.
Photo shows, ambulance men rendering first aid to Handley, still in the driving seat of his car, immediately after his remarkable escapes.
