"On average, six people are injured on the roads in Dorset every day.

Our safety camera team is integral as part of our drive to make the roads safer in our county and to prevent serious or fatal road traffic collisions. "I am now in a position to issue an image of a man we would like to identify as part of our enquiries and would ask anyone who recognises him to please come forward."
