Police are appealing for witnesses to an accident that left a motorcyclist with a serious leg injury.
It happened on the A170, between Helmsley and Sutton Bank, at 12.40pm yesterday.
A gold-coloured Volvo was overtaking two stationary cars, causing a car travelling in the opposite direction to brake, which led to the accident.
The motorcyclist was taken to the Friarage Hospital in Northallerton. His injuries are not thought to be life threatening. The Volvo did not stop. Witnesses are asked to call (01723) 500300.
