A car and a motorbike were involved in a crash on Sunday but the car driver didn't stop and fled the scene.
North Yorkshire Police say the silver saloon, which was possibly a VW or a Skoda, suffered severe rear bumper damage as a result of the collision and are asking businesses that might have repaired a silver car in the last week to come forward.
The crash happened at around 4.40pm on Sunday as a motorcyclist was travelling along the B1222 near Peckfield, Sherburn in Elmet. The bike and the car were involved in a collision at the junction with the A63.
The motorcyclist, a man in his 20s, received serious injuries which required hospital treatment but has since been released.
