Firefighters spent an hour supporting the body of a severely injured elderly woman as she was cut free from the mangled wreck of her car.
Fire station manager Chris Wilson, from Rewley Road in Oxford, has described the aftermath of the car smash at a notorious blackspot near Witney.
The collision happened at the junction of the A415 and the B449 to Hardwick on Wednesday afternoon - just 125m away from where a 21-year-old man from Oxford was killed on Saturday.
Mr Wilson and his crew arrived to find that the driver of a Peugeot 406 had managed to pull himself out of his battered car, but the woman was overturned in a ditch, trapped in her Peugeot 206.
He said: "The car was precariously positioned upside down, 10ft below the road in a ditch and in a foot of freezing water.
"We put two firefighters into the car so they could support her and take the weight off the seatbelt which was digging into her chest and stomach."
