The driver of the car was being treated by St John after leaving the road near the intersection with Doon St at about 8.40am this morning. Skid marks show the driver appears to have slid across Portobello Road and hit a wooden barrier before ending up in the harbour. Police, fire and St John attended, however, the car's single occupant was out of the vehicle on arrival. St John did not need to transport the person and it did not appear injuries were serious.
