An oncoming black Volkswagen overtook another car and ended up on the same side of the road as Pamela, almost causing a head on collision.
As a result of trying to escape it, she ended up driving along a verge and into a ditch.Pamela was shunted into the driver's seat and as she tried to gain control of her car, her motor spun back onto the road before crashing into the overtaking vehicle.Then left with no steering control, Pamela's car was flipped into the air and landed in a field rolling multiple times.The 28-year-old mum, left badly shaken by the incident but after being checked over by paramedics at the scene, headed home instead of agreeing to go to hospital so she could spend Christmas Eve with her two young daughters.But the following day, Pamela recalls waking up in severe pain, forcing her to attend Belford Hospital on Christmas Day where she spent eight hours alone in a head brace, with doctors suspecting she may have fractured her back.Speaking to the Daily Record, Pamela has relived the horror moment of the crash and revealed she now suffers from trauma as a result of the incident.She said: "I was holding on to the steering wheel so tight.
