A MAN has been arrested after reportedly refusing to take a roadside breath test following a crash in Renfrew.
Police were called to Mossland Road at around 4.45am on Sunday after the 34-year-old motorist's blue Nissan Qashqai overturned and came to rest on its side.
Airbags in the car were deployed but it is understood the driver was unhurt during the incident, which did not involve any other vehicles.

The suspect allegedly started shouting abuse at officers before putting up a struggle when they tried to arrest him.
He was eventually taken into custody and charged with breach of the peace, resisting arrest and a variety of road traffic offences.
Police said the suspect was taken to hospital as a precaution and later discharged.
He is due to appear at Paisley Sheriff Court at a later date.
