Members of the public who have dash-cam footage of a fatal crash along the Buckinghamshire stretch of the M40 are being asked to come forward by Thames Valley Police.
At around 8.15am on Sunday, January 22, there was an incident involving five cars and a coach on the M40 between J5 and J4 southbound.
The smash resulted in the deaths of a woman in her 60s and a man in his 70s – both of whom sadly died at the scene.
Just got home from Coventry. Over six hours due to a terrible crash on the M40 that left two dead and 12 injured. Puts things into perspective. Thinking of all those affected by this dreadful accident 🙁
