A farmer has been jailed for two years for killing a Deepings school-girl in a high speed road-crash.The life of 18-year-old Katie Shields was taken when the car she was driving was rammed by a Grand Cherokee Jeep travelling at over 70 mph in the same direction at Deeping St Nicholas. It is believed Katie was turning right at Hop Pole.
At the time of the tragedy, I posted on the lost chance for a by-pass on the arrow straight road through Deeping St Nic.
Katie, a sixth form student at The Deepings School, was a highly talented young lady. She had been British Tae-Kwon-Do champion and had been accepted at Birmingham University.
It was the second fatal accident that the Jeep driver, a farmer from Surfleet had been involved in. In 1993 he was driving a Mercedes car in a crash in which his wife was killed.
