Dashcam appeal after serious collision in Mansfield Woodhouse
Police are appealing for information and dashcam footage following a serious collision.
Emergency services were called to New Mill Lane, Mansfield Woodhouse, at 10.45pm on Saturday (July 5) following reports of a collision between a car and a van.
A 41-year-old man was arrested on suspicion of causing serious injury by dangerous driving in connection with the incident.
He and a woman, who were inside the car, a black Renault Laguna, were taken to hospital with serious injuries where they remain.
The male driver of the white Vauxhall Movano van also remains in hospital while two children who were inside the vehicle have now been discharged.
The road was closed while officers carried out extensive investigations and a number of witnesses have been spoken to.
However, investigators believe there may be people with information, or dashcam footage, who have not yet come forward.
Detective Constable Liah Lane, of the force’s Serious Collision Investigation Unit, said: “We would like to speak to anyone who was driving along New Mill Lane or surrounding roads around this time.
“They may have seen something, or have recorded footage from their vehicle, which could assist with our inquiries to discover exactly what happened.
“Likewise, any pedestrians in the area at the time who witnessed either of these vehicles in the moments before the incident should get in touch.”
If you can assist, call 101, quoting incident 749 of 5 July 2025, or Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111.
