1:46pm Tuesday 14th April 2009

By Dani Webb ยป

A POLICE officer has denied causing death while driving without due care and attention.

PC Thomas David H pleaded not guilty to causing the death of 25-year-old Amiee W while responding to an emergency call on October 18 last year.

The Cleveland Police officer was approaching Newport Bridge, in Middlesbrough, when the incident occurred at 2.15am.

Miss Wh suffered multiple injuries and died in hospital a month later.

Mr H, 27, of Sunderland, is based at xxx

The case was adjourned until April 24.

Wish him well. It's a tough job and none of us can be perfect. :popcorn: We are all only as good as the last drive .. and our training enhances our existing skills . It does not .. nor cannot grant us immunity from error.

I wonder what went wrong ?
2:15am is normally a fairly empty street driving event - not obviously for all Cities. I wonder if he made a tragic assumption or was looking in the wrong direction. His / her collision must have been hard - unless 'joint' last minute avoidance into each other. Be interesting to get all the facts when we can. I wonder how much training he had had ?
