Man in his 70s seriously injured after collision with stationary lorry
Bedfordshire Police is appealing for witnesses after a serious collision on the A421, which left a man in his 70s with serious injuries.
On Friday, September 1 at around 2.40pm, officers were called to a collision between a blue Ford Focus and a stationary lorry in a layby on the westbound carriageway, near the junction with the A6. The driver of the Ford Focus, a man in his 70s, was taken to hospital where he is still receiving treatment for serious injuries.
Sergeant Duncan Hall from the Bedfordshire Cambridgeshire and Hertfordshire Roads Policing Unit, investigating the collision, said: "Our thoughts are with the man injured and his family after this serious collision.
"We are appealing for anyone who witnessed the vehicles involved before or during the incident to please get in touch with us. We would be particularly interested in any dashcam footage that captured the Ford Focus travelling westbound from the Black Cat roundabout prior to the collision."
Anyone with information that can help the police investigation is asked to report it to police using the online reporting tool[2], or by calling 101, quoting reference 227 of September 1.
