Police and the ambulance service are in attendance, and there are huge delays on the surrounding roads, with tailbacks down to the seafront and the Arches cafes.
Emily Taylor was driving past the incident after it happened.
She said: "We were coming along the seafront and we wondered why the traffic was so bad, and then we got to the traffic lights and the car was there flipped over, with the other one behind it.
"We've no idea how it happened but it looked pretty bad.
"There were loads of police and ambulance vehicles around the scene where it happened.
"They hadn't closed the road, they had just cordoned the area around it off and people had to get past it."
Motorists are advised to avoid the area.
