A number of people stopped at the scene to help and a number of vehicles slowed down as they passed.

Officers say:

"We are appealing to the following people to come forward:

  • Anyone who witnessed the collision – either pedestrians or motorists
  • Anyone with dashcam footage of the collision.
  • Anyone with dashcam footage of a woman walking along Station Road wearing a red coat and using a walking frame

Anyone who can help is asked to email MCIT@northyorkshire.police.uk or call 101.
