News / More dangerous overtaking
POLICE are keen to speak to the driver of a red Ford vehicle which was forced to leave the road last week following a reported dangerous overtaking manoeuvre.
Two vehicles were forced to take evasive action to avoid collision at the Lang Kames at around 12.30pm on Friday 19 May.
Police are also currently investigating another report of dangerous overtaking which is said to have taken place in a similar location on Wednesday (24 May).
Anyone with information is asked to contact Police Scotland on 101 or visit Lerwick Police Station.
