Maureen Taylor, who manages Pavilion, outside which the crash occurred, commented on the dangers the corner presents.

She said: “With all the cars parked all over the place it’s a very dangerous corner.

“Especially with people nipping out between the cars – you take your life in your hands when crossing the road.”
