Officers investigating a road traffic collision in the Ferndown area are appealing for witnesses or anyone with relevant dashcam footage to come forward.
Dorset Police received a report shortly after 4pm on Thursday 30 July 2026 of a collision involving a red Nissan Qashqai and a white Modena motorcycle on Ringwood Road in Longham, near to the junction with Ham Lane.
Following the collision, it was reported that the female driver of the Nissan initially asked for the motorcycle rider’s telephone number but then stopped communicating and refused to give her details.

“I would also like to hear from any motorists who were in the area and may have captured relevant dashcam footage.”
