Investigations into a collision between a car and a bicycle on Cold Bath Road are continuing, two months after the incident happened.
North Yorkshire Police said a woman in her 50s was arrested and released under investigation while officers continue to make inquiries.
It follows the collision at the junction of West Cliffe Grove on Friday, August 12, between a white Vauxhall Viva travelling up Cold Bath Road from the Crown roundabout and a pedal cyclist coming down the road in the opposite direction.
The cyclist - a man in his 50s from the Richmond area - was taken to hospital with serious injuries.
An air ambulance landed on the Stray and most of Cold Bath Road was closed for several hours while police dealt with the scene.
At the time, officers appealed for the driver of a dark-coloured hatchback who stopped at the scene to come forward. They have now said they have traced the driver.
However, they are continuing to appeal for information from anyone who saw either the car or the bicycle.
Witnesses to the collision or anyone with CCTV or dash cam footage is asked to call North Yorkshire Police on 101 quoting incident number 122201422867. Alternatively, email 001282@northyorkshire.police.uk quoting the same reference number.
