Prince Philip, the Duke of Edinburgh and husband of Queen Elizabeth II, exchanged "well-wishes" with the two women in the car that was involved in an accident with him, the Buckingham Palace said on Friday.
A palace spokesperson said that the Duke underwent a "precautionary check-up" on the advice of a doctor, who later said that Prince Philip "had no injuries of concern," CNN reported.
The 97-year-old Duke escaped unhurt in a car crash that took place on Thursday near Sandringham Estate at around 3 pm (local time) in Norfolk, situated in eastern part of England.
As a result of the crash, Prince Philip's Land Rover flipped onto its side, but the Duke emerged unharmed, a statement from the local police said.
The Duke's vehicle collided with another vehicle carrying two women, aged 28 and 45, and a nine-month-old infant. The police said that while the infant escaped unscathed, the 28-year-old woman suffered cuts to her knee, and the 45-year-old woman broke her wrist.
The injuries to the two women were not life-threatening.
