Lad killed in A65 crash which also claimed ‘brilliant' doctor was worried about the dentist and 'veered' into lorry
The lives of two much-loved young people were tragically cut short in a road traffic collision described by a coroner as a "combined tragedy of gigantic proportions."
Both Oliver and Maisie died at the scene. A second vehicle, a white Ford Fiesta, was damaged by flying debris. Maisie, of Headingley, Leeds, had been driving to work at Airedale Hospital. Driver Lauren Richardson, who witnessed the collision, said the black Fiesta - driven by Oliver - had 'suddenly veered' over a solid white line and into the opposite lane which she said happened "suddenly without warning and without reason."The inquest heard that Oliver had a history of mental health problems and hadn't been sleeping well for around four days before the tragic crash, although there was nothing to suggest had had suffered a medical episode.
Oliver's dad told the hearing that his son had been subject to disciplinary action at university in February/March 2019 which "ran for 16 months" until it concluded mid-September and Oliver was allowed to complete his final year.Coroner Martin Fleming said that Oliver was getting support and that he had "turned a corner and improved."
Examination of his laptop found numerous internet searches in the months before the collision relating to depression. Searches had also been made around suicide and painkillers. He said Oliver's Fiesta had 'encroached' into the opposite lane but there was no evidence to say why this had happened.
