A motorist said ‘I hope I killed them’ after a crash which caused the death of a teen.
Luke Hawkes, 28, was behind the wheel of a Ford Transit which ignored traffic lights at the junction of the A38 and St John's Street in Bridgwater. The car smashed into the side of a white Citroen.
Bethany Branson, aged 19, was a passenger in the Citroen being driven in a proper manner by her best friend. The pair had been out to buy a milkshake. The impact was so ferocious that she was thrown from the car and died at the scene of catastrophic injuries.
