At the time, police said the road had been closed to allow a 'safe working environment' and so officers can establish what has happened.
Island Roads was contacted to provide hard road closures, the force added.
Police have now confirmed the driver of the Ford Fiesta, a man in his 30s, suffered a serious but not life threatening injury.
He was taken to hospital by the Isle of Wight Ambulance Service.
