"No sentence could ever fill the void left in the lives of Tanya’s loved ones" - Tributes have been paid to a much-loved nurse who tragically died in a collision.
Tanya Forrest, 51, was driving with her mum in the passenger seat of her Ford Ka on the A189 Spine Road, in Cramlington, Northumberland. Tanya had called NHS on 111 on a bluetooth device to order a prescription for mum, Sandra, when the call operator told her to stop somewhere safe to continue the call. But she stopped in the middle of the nearside lane of the dual carriageway.
A number of other cars were able to drive around her but delivery driver Kenneth Wilson had taken his eyes off the road for a crucial six seconds as he fumbled in his bag for a drink. He didn't see the Ford Ka or that other vehicles had driven around it and he smashed into the back of it.
