Number of Serious Injuries on North Yorkshire Roads Continues to Fall

The number of serious injuries on North Yorkshire's roads is continuing to fall.

Figures show there were 244 fewer serious injuries in the county last year than in 2019.

But North Yorkshire Police's Chief Inspector of Specialist Operations, Alex Butterfield, says the number of fatalities have remained stubbornly static over the last few years.
