A truck driver has admitted causing the death of a well respected nurse after smashing into the back of her stationary car while getting a can of cola out of his bag.
Tanya Forrest, 51, was driving her Ford Ka along the A189 Spine Road near Cramlington, Northumberland, when she pulled over with her mum in the car.
While other cars were able to safely move around her car, lorry driver Kenneth Wilson had taken his eyes off the road in order to get his drink.
