Yesterday’s accidents, which happened on a misty morning, have prompted a warning from Bassetlaw Insp Steve Cartwright.
“With the onset of Autumn we get a change in driving conditions, so it is important that we all drive to the conditions and ensure our vehicles are visible by switching on our lights,” he said.
“Mornings and evenings are getting darker and fog is beginning to appear. Please plan your journeys so you have enough time even in reduced visibility and avoid the temptation to rush.”

• Inappropriate use of speed
• Using a mobile phone whilst driving
• Not wearing a seat belt
• Driving while affected through drink or drugs
