Nearly 40 officers from Roads Policing Unit are out patrolling the roads around #Epsom during the Derby weekend to prevent serious and fatal collisions and keep racegoers and residents safe, and we will be testing anyone suspected of driving under the influence of drink or drugs.
Travelling to the Epsom Derby this weekend? Our Roads Policing Unit will be out and about on the roads around Epsom and testing where they have reason to believe a person is driving under the influence. Don’t take the risk. Have fun but, if you’re drinking, leave the car at home.
What a lovely shot of us assisting with this stop using our specialist skills #TeamWorkMakesTheDreamWork #Fatal5

We are opening the road. It will be down to one lane past the scene. Thank you for your patience.
Road closure: The A217 Brighton Road is currently closed Northbound at the Tadworth Roundabout and remains closed up to the Shell Garage at Reigate Road due to a serious Collision. We are working to clear the road and release trapped traffic ASAP.
Recovery have been called and we hope to open one lane within the next hour. We will keep you updated
