Dan Elsworthy, 25, was involved in a devastating crash on the M3 near Basingstoke last Friday. The tipper truck driver was heading home from work when the collision left him in critical condition. Medics managed to stabilise him, but he now faces the grim possibility of having both legs amputated.

Doctors warn Dan may never walk again. His family’s future has been turned upside down in an instant. To help with his long road to recovery, friends have launched a fundraising page aiming to raise £5,000. Every penny will support Dan and provide comfort during this unimaginable ordeal.
Crash Closes M3 for Hours as Police Investigate
The motorway was shut for several hours while emergency crews worked at the scene. A doctor even had to amputate part of Dan’s foot on site to save his life. Hampshire police reopened the M3 just after 5am on Saturday but remain keen to understand what caused the crash.
Officers confirmed no other vehicles are believed to be involved but urged witnesses to come forward. “Other motorists may be able to help establish exactly what happened,” a police statement said. Anyone with information can call 101.
