Police Seek CCTV Footage of Scarborough Collision

Wednesday, 25 September 2024 12:40

A car was involved in two separate collisions on Woodlands Drive on Tuesday.

North Yorkshire Polcie say they attended the scene of a road traffic collision on Woodlands Drive on Tuesday 23rd September.

A Ford C Max was reported to be involved in a collision with a taxi, and then after the exchange of details, the C Max was involved in a further collision with a fence.

Officers attended the location, and following enquiries, the driver was breathalysed. With the drink drive limit being 35 (micrograms of alcohol per 100 millilitres of breath), the driver blew 122. Nearly 3 and a half times the drink drive limit.

The driver was taken to hospital where an evidential sample of blood was taken.

The vehicle was also recovered as it transpired that the driver didn't have a valid driving licence.

Officers say:

"The investigation is currently ongoing. If you were in the area and may have had dashcam footage of either of the collisions, please contact 101 quoting reference number 12240173862.

Alternatively, you can email Emily.Henderson2@northyorkshire.police.uk"
