Those with dash-cam and CCTV footage are also being urged to contact the force.

And anyone who was driving in the area before 12.40am, especially those who saw a motor matching the description, are also of major interest to investigators.

"If you witnessed the crash and have yet to speak to officers, please get in touch. If you were driving in the area before 12.40am and saw a car matching this description, please also come forward.

"We would like to speak to anyone who has dashcam or CCTV footage which assist with our investigation."
