A motorist who overtook a lorry is believed to be responsible for a two-car collision that hospitalised two people.
Thames Valley Police is appealing for witnesses following the minor injury road traffic collision near Middleton Stoney at around 3.20pm yesterday, Saturday, April 22.
A black Peugeot 207 and a black Volkswagen Polo collided on the B4030 between the village and Bicester[1] on the stretch between Bicester and the M40 overbridge.
The crash hospitalised a man and a woman, both in their fifties, although both have since been discharged.
It is believed that the crash was caused after a small silver car overtook a lorry, and police want to speak to the lorry driver.
Investigating officer PC Amy Boughton, of the Joint Operations Roads Policing Unit, said: “From our initial enquiries we believe this collision may have been as a result of another car, possibly silver and small in size, overtaking a lorry, which resulted in the Peugeot and Volkswagen colliding.
“As a result we would like to speak to the lorry driver who may have information about what happened or dash-cam footage that could assist the investigation.
“We would also appeal to anyone else who may have witnessed or have dash-cam footage of the incident to please come forward.
“You can make a report by calling 101 or via the Thames Valley Police website, quoting reference 43230175118.”
