It comes after Highways England in the South West warns of an "extraordinarily wet and windy day''

A Royal Mail van has flipped on its side after crashing along a narrow lane near Newton Abbot.

The picture of the overturned van - which collided with a Volkswagen - was uploaded onto social media by officers from Devon and Cornwall Roads Policing Team, who warned drivers of the wet roads.

In a statement on Twitter, a spokesperson for the policing team said: ''It went a tad wrong in Ideford this afternoon.

''Luckily no one was injured and the postal worker had finished their rounds.

'A lesson to slow down in the wet weather and take care on speed on speed roads.''

It's good to get these types of threads, the ridiculous my manager said bollox, so we can reassure ourselves that while the world is falling apart, Royal Mail managers are still being the low-life C***S they have always been.

The daily grind of having to argue your case with an intellectual pigmy of a line manager is physically and emotionally draining.
