North Yorkshire Police said it happened around 7.30pm on Wednesday, October 23 between the Grimston Bar and Wigginton areas of York and involved a white Range Rover, with a 2005 registration plate.

A force spokesperson said: “Members of the public reported the vehicle weaving in and out of traffic and driving dangerously.

“We believe we have traced the vehicle involved and the driver is assisting police with enquiries.

“However, we’re appealing for witnesses who may have seen the vehicle or have any footage of its manner of driving as we know the areas of the city that the vehicle travelled through were congested with traffic.

“Thanks go to the members of the public that we have already spoken with.”
