Hampshire Constabulary is searching for a motorist who spoke to a cyclist after a serious collision on a Portsmouth roundabout but left without exchanging details. The crash happened on the Western Road roundabout near Northarbour Road at around 6.15am on 14 July 2026, according to an appeal from the force.
The cyclist, a man in his 70s, suffered serious but not life-threatening injuries and required hospital treatment. The vehicle involved was a white or silver hatchback.

They now want to identify her to obtain a formal statement as part of their investigation.
The roundabout sits in a busy part of Portsmouth, linking Western Road with Northarbour Road. While no previous collisions have been recorded at this specific junction, officers are keen to hear from anyone with dashcam footage from the area at that time. Witnesses or the driver herself can call 101, quoting reference 44260336667.
