Four people have received only minor injuries after their car crashed down a steep bank near Rotorua, coming to rest only metres from a stream.
A police spokeswoman said police, ambulance and fire services were called to the scene on State Highway 30, near Horohoro, just before midday.
The spokeswoman said the car was a "number of metres down a bank".
All four people in the vehicle were out and checked over by ambulance staff.
A St John spokesman said four patients, all with minor injuries, were treated at the scene and did not require a trip to hospital.
A Rotorua Daily Post photographer at the scene said the car has crashed about 30m down a steep bank and came to rest "very close" to a stream.
Cordons at the intersection of SH30 and Whirinaki Valley Rd and SH30 and Nicholson Rd had been lifted.
As the crowd chanted, Seymour walked back into the Beehive with his MPs.
