A 'kind' teenager who died after crashing his moped was over the drink driving limit, an inquest heard.
Kyle Jowett, 19, was killed when he crashed into a lamp post and then hit a wall outside Monty’s pub in Leigh, Wigan, in the early hours of March 19. During an inquest at Bolton Coroner’s Court on September 16, evidence from forensic toxicologist Julie Evans, said Kyle's blood alcohol level was 130. The drink drive limit in England is 80, MEN reports.
Ms Evans said: "There is evidence to suggest that alcohol had been consumed prior to death. There is a potential for this to have had a detrimental effect on Mr Jowett’s ability to control a motor vehicle."
