As a Manchester United ambassador, the former midfielder was donned official club attire at the time of the incident. According to a witness, “I did not witness the other vehicle involved in the accident, but it appeared that Robson’s car was struck from the rear.”
“There was quite a lot of damage to the Mercedes and a section bumper was hanging off.
“It didn’t look like anyone was injured and Robson was all smiles while talking to the officers.
“He’s probably been tackled harder from behind during his playing days!”
The incident occurred around yesterday morning on Princess Parkway, Manchester.
