Officers were forced to shut a major Derbyshire route after a lorry toppled over amid windy conditions.

On Friday, February 17, the White Peak Safer Neighbourhood Team were called to reports of an overturned lorry on the A623 outside Tideswell.

The route was closed to allow for the vehicle to be recovered – but both the driver and passenger were found safe and well following the accident.

Officers reminded motorists that driving in windy weather can be extremely hazardous, and urged them to take care on the county’s roads.
