There's an appeal for witnesses following a collision between a car and a 'pit' motorbike at the junction of Chichester Road, and Hawthorn Road in Bognor.
It happened at 6.50pm on Friday (Oct 14) when an Alfa Romeo Giulietta car travelling west on Chichester Road was in collision with the Honda pit motorbike.
The motorcyclist, an 18-year-old man suffered life threatening injuries and was taken to hospital where he remains.
