A lorry driver killed a "dedicated and skilled" nurse after he ploughed into her car while getting a can of fizzy drink out of his bag, a court heard.
Kenneth Wilson, 55, was jailed for 28 months after he took his eyes off the road and fatally injured Tanya Forrest, 51, in a crash on November 3, 2019.
Wilson was driving an 18-tonne truck when he collided with Tanya's Ford Ka vehicle - after she had pulled over onto the side of A189, near Cramlington, Northumberland.
