“The thoughts of the investigation team are with the family of the motorcyclist following this tragic incident.

“Specially trained officers will be deployed to support them while our investigations continue.

“The collision occurred on a busy road close to the A38 and we believe there were a number of other vehicles and pedestrians in the area who may have witnessed something which could assist us.

“Likewise, there may be motorists with recorded footage which could help us understand exactly what happened.”
