“The BMW failed to stop following the collision and is believed to have driven on towards Ederney.

“I would firstly like to ask the driver of the BMW to examine their conscience and to come forward to police to explain what happened.

“It is likely that the BMW would have sustained damage due to the collision and I would therefore like to speak with anyone who is approached to repair this vehicle.
