A woman whose mum and step-dad were killed by a Scottish based lorry driver who was trawling an 'adult' site at the wheel has launched a campaign to stop people using their phones while driving.
Mariellena has now joined forces with Durham Constabulary and the county’s Police and Crime Commissioner to design a car sticker to discourage people from using their mobile phones at the wheel. “No family should ever have to go through what we have experienced – sorting through your own parents’ belongings, clearing their home, organising their funeral, having to move on and live life without them. It is absolutely heart-breaking.
She said: "We want people to look at these stickers and realise that there are real people behind them – not just statistics, but people with families and loved ones who are missing them terribly. PCC Joy Allen added: "Every time someone uses their mobile phone while driving it puts others at risk. What Mari and her family have gone through is devastating. This is why I am fully behind the use of dashcams to shine a light and prosecute those who intentionally have no regard for other road users and is why I have prioritised Safer Roads within my Police and Crime Plan.
After Onut was sentenced in 2022, he spoke out from his prison cell as part of a film highlighting the dangers of using a mobile phone at the wheel.
