A nurse who witnessed the crash said she had been left in "total shock".

The woman, who asked to remain anonymous, said she had gone to help the victim but quickly realised "there wasn't anything we could do".

"There was very little that we could do other than hold her hand and that was it," she said.

"We want her family to know that she was with people at the end."

A number of floral tributes and messages have been left at the scene, including one left by a parent at the nearby Phillimore Community Primary School, which reads: "The community is sad, rest in peace."
