Buxton man charged with series of driving offences

A Buxton man has been charged with a series of driving offences after police used a stinger to arrest him following a chase. 

Derbyshire's Roads Policing Team, who were part of Channel 5's hit show Traffic Cops, were patrolling in the High Peak on Tuesday evening (7 December) when they spotted a car in the Chapel area which allegedly failed to stop. 

Following a pursuit that ended in Buxton, officers used a stinger and arrested the driver. 

Daniel Oliver, of Eagle Parade in Buxton, has now been charged with dangerous driving, driving whilst disqualified, driving a vehicle with no insurance, failing to stop and failing to surrender to custody (court warrant). 

After being remanded in police custody, the 27-year-old appeared at South Derbyshire Magistrates' Court on Wednesday (8 December) where he was subsequently bailed to appear at Derby Crown Court on Wednesday 5 January 2022.

  • The signs they are a changin'

    It was the end of an era at Whitfield Community Centre this week as the old Derbyshire County Council signage was removed to make way for new ones. Whitfield Together, the group that bought the Centre for the community, is refreshing the Centre's image. Its new logo will soon go up on the front of the building. Gerry Dominey told us, "It seemed like a significant moment when we took the sign down. It was as if we were saying that the Centre is ours now and we can put our paw print on it. And that felt good."
