A West Midlands Ambulance Service spokesman said: “Crews responded to a collision between a motorbike and car in Warwick Road this morning.
“Crews treated a man in his forties for a slight chest injury. The rider was apparently thrown thirty feet from his machine on impact. Fortunately he was wearing full protective gear and according to Crews was extremely lucky not to have suffered serious injury.

“A male car driver was assessed at the scene but did not require hospital treatment.”
