ENGLAND soccer star Joe Cole cheated death yesterday when a 40-ton lorry smashed into his Range Rover Vogue as he sat in traffic.
He then dashed to the aid of another driver trapped in his Vauxhall Signum.
The Chelsea winger’s £50,000 4x4 took the full impact of the Scania lorry — and careered into the Vauxhall.
Driver John Jury was knocked unconscious — and came to with Cole banging on his window.
Cole, 26, complained of a sore arm as he tended to John. The Range Rover’s boot and left side was badly damaged. It could not be driven from the crash spot on the A3 near Wandsworth in South West London.
Cole, who was on his way to his first training session of the season at Chelsea, left his car and called for a driver to pick him up.
A spokesman for Cole said: “He was shaken up, but he is fine and went to training as usual. He is just happy no one was hurt.”
Dad-of-two John, 50, a lift engineer, said: “Joe Cole is lucky to be alive.
“If he had been driving a sports car or smaller vehicle it would have been crushed.”
Police were not called to the scene and Cole exchanged insurance details with John and the driver of the lorry
