A police investigation has been launched and officers are looking to establish the full circumstances of what happened and are keen for anyone who has any relevant detail about this incident to contact police.
Sergeant Jill Kirkpatrick, of the Road Policing Unit, said: "Enquiries are still ongoing and we are keen to speak to anyone who was driving at or near the location who has not already been spoken to by an officer.
“Anyone who can help our enquiries should call us on 101, quoting incident 2161 of November 12.”
