A dad who lost two of his children in a horrific car crash while they were driving home from a football game has issued an emotional plea begging people not to drink and drive during the World Cup. Steve Kimberley's son Matthew, 12, and daughter Lucy, 10 were both killed in a collision after an intoxicated man driving a Range Rover crashed into them on the A38 in 1996.
A family friend, 19-year-old Ben Jewell, and the drunk driver also died in the crash which Steve survived but was left wheelchair bound as a result, the Mirror reports. Images of the dreadful scene show Steve's completely destroyed car which was left so badly damaged that police were unable to identify what sort of car it was.
Twenty-five years on from the awful accident, Steve has issued a warning to people getting behind the wheel during the World Cup celebrations and in the build up to the festive period. Steve, from Falmouth, Cornwall, had taken Matthew, Lucy and Ben to watch a Chelsea vs Plymouth Argyle match in a pre-season friendly.
