A MAN has died after a crash on a rural road notorious for bad accidents.

The 33-year-old was driving a Subaru Impreza on Wakefield Road when it left the road on a left hand bend, hit a kerb and a wall at 12.30am yesterday.

It is understood the driver was flung from the car and landed in a field.

He had suffered serious head injuries and was taken to Pinderfields Hospital in Wakefield where he died a short time later.

The car caught fire immediately after the impact.
