Hampshire Police appeals for witnesses after vehicle drives wrong way down A34 slip road

Hampshire Police is appealing for witnesses to a dangerous driving incident on the A34 northbound on Tuesday afternoon.

At approximately 3.20pm on Tuesday, October 26, officers saw a silver Subaru Outback driving the wrong way on the Whitchurch slip road northbound.

Hampshire Constabulary said officers attempted to stop the vehicle, which then joined the A34 from the slip road and began driving in the correct direction.

Following a pursuit, officers lost sight of the vehicle at the Beacon Hill exit.

The force said it had been conducting enquiries to locate the vehicle involved and is now turning to the public for help.

It said: “Were you in the area at the time?

“Did you see a silver Subaru Outback driving the wrong way up the slip road? Did you witness the vehicle travelling along the A34 afterwards?

“We’d like to hear from anyone with dash cam footage of the incident or the vehicle around the time stated above.

“We’d also like to hear from you if you’ve seen the vehicle since.

“We believe that it possibly has damage to its offside and has no front number plate.

“Anyone with information, no matter how small it may seem, is asked to contact us on 101 quoting reference 44210430064.”
