Officers have now renewed their appeal as the investigation continues over two months later.

The force is asking anyone with information about the crash, or footage of either vehicle before, during or after the incident, to come forward.

Investigators from the force's Serious Collision Investigation Unit are particularly keen to speak to anyone who was operating a tractor in the area at the time of the crash.
