Witness appeal after collision in Felbridge

We are appealing for witnesses after a collision in Felbridge on Saturday, 24 December 2022.

The single-vehicle collision, involving a red Subaru Forester colliding with a tree, took place at around 9:35pm on the A22 between the junction with Copthorne Lane and Newchapel Road. The driver of the car was taken to hospital with serious injuries.

Sergeant Dan Ayrton said: “We would like to speak to the drivers of any cars that were in the area at the time, and may have witnessed the collision, or the moments leading up to it. We believe the drivers of a Volvo, Porsche Taycan, and Peugeot, seen in the area at the time, may be able to help with our enquiries.”

The matter was referred to the Independent Office for Police Conduct (IOPC) as the car involved previously came to the notice of the police prior to the collision. This has since been referred back to Surrey Police for local investigation.
