Police are appealing for witnesses after a woman died in a collision on the A4280 St Neots Road in Bedford.
Officers were called at around 2.45pm on Thursday after reports that a grey Volkswagen Golf had collided with a white Renault truck parked in a layby.
Emergency services attended, but the passenger of the Golf, a woman in her 80s, was pronounced dead at the scene.
The driver, a man also in his 80s, was taken to the hospital with minor injuries.
Appeal for witnesses
Detective inspector Craig Wheeler, from the Bedfordshire, Cambridgeshire and Hertfordshire Serious Collision Investigation Unit, said: “First and foremost, our thoughts are with the family of the woman who has died at this sad time.
“We are asking for anyone who witnessed the incident, has information, or may have dash cam footage of before or after the collision, to get in touch with us as soon as possible, as this could help us with our enquiries.”
Anyone who witnessed the collision or has dashcam footage is asked to contact the police online or via 101, quoting Operation Plaistow.
