He smashed head on into its windscreen.

He was rushed to the hospital by public-spirited persons and was treated by emergency staff. His son Paul Robinson was present at the hospital last evening along with veterans in the broadcasting fraternity.

A relative told reporters that Robinson was conscious and recognised his family but said he had no recollection of the accident.
