Mum-of-four died in horror road smash after 16-tonne tanker turned in front of car on rural road

A trucker who turned his gas tanker into the path of a car driven by a mother-of-four, causing a horrific fatal smash, has admitted a charge of causing death by careless driving.

Ian Moorhouse, 63, pulled out from a queue of traffic at nearly 25 miles an hour in a bid to make a right turn into a side road.

Because he failed to slow, stop, or drop back, his view ahead was blocked by a tractor and trailer in front of him, and an oncoming silver VW Golf driven by his victim, Amanda Boag, was completely obscured.
