The 18 year old driver involved in a double road traffic incident fatality was summoned to court last week.
The fatal road collision on Mersley Down on the Isle of Wight took place on Thursday, 2nd January 2014.
Tragically, 67 year old Barbara Ann Ford and 14 year old Kiri-Jade Hodgkinson both died from injuries sustained from the road traffic incident.
No recollection of crash
The court heard last Friday how the 18 year old driver, who had just two weeks before the incident passed his driving test, has no recollection of the crash.
He pleaded guilty to two charges of causing death by dangerous driving.
The CP report that his legal representation, Barry Arnett said,
“By his plea of guilty, he accepts he must have been responsible for the impact.”
Sentencing next month
Powell will return to the Crown Court on 4th July for sentencing.
Our thoughts go out to all the families affected by this tragedy.
