Police are investigating a single-vehicle crash involving a white Ford Falcon utility near Huonville on Friday afternoon, which resulted in a young man being hospitalised.
Police and emergency services were called to the crash at the intersection of Huon Highway and Huon Link Road, about 3.55pm on Friday.
Preliminary investigations indicate the driver lost control travelling on Huon Link Road, with his vehicle crossing to the opposite side of the roundabout intersection before coming to rest under Armco railing.
The driver, a 20-year-old man, was extracted from the vehicle by State Emergency Service volunteers before being taken to Royal Hobart Hospital for treatment for non-life-threatening injuries.
Police believe the Armco railing in place prevented the vehicle from rolling over and going down the embankment.
Anyone who witnessed the crash or has dash cam footage, is asked to contact Huonville police on 131 444 or report anonymously to Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000 or at crimestopperstas.com.au
