A 28-year-old woman died after a crash as she crossed the northbound carriageway of the A1 yesterday.
A police spokesman said a Fiat Maria collided with the woman, and a Mazda 626 hit the central barrier, as it avoided the accident, just north of the Granada Services, near Washington, at about 3.30am.
The occupants of a white minibus who gave her a lift to the service area from the Gate, in Newcastle, are asked to call 0191-455 7555 ext 64552.
