The police officer stated: "We have ruled out a number of possibilities and it has really come down to the fact that there has most likely been some form of distraction. What that distraction was, we will never know. Certainly, Mr Green did not brake.

He adds: "That led what was to be a very happy day to being the most horrendous day."

The two men were in the front seats and their wives were riding in the rear seats. All passengers were wearing seat belts. The car was travelling at a speed of approximately 80kmph when it crashed.

A nurse has become the first in a wheelchair to work on the frontline of the NHS.Michelle Quested, 33, lost the use of her legs in a car accident seven years ago. But the dedicated nurse was determined not to let her disability get in the way of her clinical work at Birmingham Children’s Hospital. Quested made £1,800 worth of changes to her wheelchair in order to be able to work, supported by the Cavell Nurses Trust, before returning to the hospital’s neonatal cardiology ward. ‘I cannot find any other frontline nursing staff in the UK who use a wheelchair, after doing a lot of research,’ she said. ‘But nurses are born to be nurses – and I wasn’t going to let being in a wheelchair stop me.’ Quested qualified as a nurse in 2004, and started working at the children’s hospital soon afterwards.
