POLICE have asked the driver of a yellow Transit-type vehicle who may have witnessed a fatal road accident on the York ring road to come forward.
The van was seen travelling from the direction of the Haxby roundabout towards the Wigginton roundabout on the A1237 on Monday at about 10.20am.
A police spokesman said it was seen to drive through the accident scene where a Renault Clio car had collided head-on with a lorry, killing passenger Rebecca Whitwell, 20, from Stockton-on-Tees.
He said: "To date the driver has not come forward and has not been traced."
Anyone with any information about the crash is asked to phone the Tadcaster road policing group on 01904 631321.
