Police investigating a road traffic collision on the A1M Northbound carriageway have released an updated appeal for witnesses after the elderly woman seriously injured in it passed away in hospital.
Joan Croucher, who was 97 and from the Filey area of North Yorkshire, sadly died on Monday.
Joan was a passenger in a silver Volkswagen Polo, which was travelling southbound on the Northbound carriageway when it was in collision with a red Vauxhall Combo van at about 3pm on 30 December.
Both drivers suffered minor injuries in the collision, which happened about a mile from Junction 44 in the Aberford area of Leeds.

“We are continuing to appeal for witnesses to this collision, as well as anyone who saw, or who has dashcam footage of the Polo as it travelled the wrong way down the A64 in North Yorkshire.
