It was initially thought that the man's injuries could be life-threatening, but a police spokesman said they are now considered non life-threatening.

There were no other vehicles involved.

A stretch of road by Woodhouse Moor was cordoned off while police continue their investigation.

The road reopened just before 3pm.
