Police are investigating a “relatively low speed” crash in a school zone that resulted in a vehicle rolling onto its roof.
The Toyota ended up upside down on Downie Street, right outside Brighton Primary School, during the busy pick-up period on Monday afternoon.
The incident unfolded when the car collided with a parked Holden Commodore, triggering the Toyota to roll and settle on its roof in the middle of the street.
Tasmania Police said the woman behind the wheel of the Toyota was taken to the Royal Hobart Hospital as a precaution.
