“I am particularly keen to obtain any dashcam footage of the crash or the area before hand if possible. If you have any information that will assist officers with their investigation, then please call 101 quoting reference number 2013 of Tuesday, 16 August, 2022.”
The appeal comes after Police Scotland said it was looking for witnesses to two separate road traffic collisions on the A90 just north of the Toll of Birness. Officers said that at about 6:55am on Friday August 19, they received a call to attend a collision involving a car, and a second collision involving a bus at the same location a short time later.
