She was freed and treated at the scene before being flown to St George’s Hospital, in Tooting, London, by the Sussex Air Ambulance.

The crash occurred just south of Turners Garage and the A29 was closed in both directions while emergency services were at the scene.

Sergeant Anthony Crisp, of the Sussex Police Road Policing Unit, in Arundel, said: “We are keen to hear from anyone who saw what happened or who saw either of the vehicles involved being driven in the collision.

Witnesses can email collision.appeal@sussex.pnn.police.uk or call 101, quoting serial 266 of 1/10.
