A 33-year-old man has died following a collision on the M6 between Lancaster and Preston this week.
Lancashire Police officers were called at 2pm on Monday (July 22) to the southbound carriageway of the M6 between junctions 33 and 32.
They found that a Seat Altea car had left the carriageway and rolled several times.
The driver, who is from Carlisle, suffered severe head injuries and was taken to hospital.
Sadly, he died yesterday. A file will be prepared and passed to HM Coroner in due course.
A woman in her 20s and two children who were passengers in the car, were taken to hospital for treatment and have since been discharged.
Another passenger, a woman in her 60s, remains in hospital.
Det Sgt Helen Parkinson of Lancashire Police’s Serious Collision Investigation Unit, said: “My thoughts first and foremost are very much with the man’s family and loved ones at this distressing time.
“Our investigation into the collision continues and we continue to appeal for witnesses and anyone with dashcam footage, to contact us.”
