Tragic situation. I also felt for Tony Francis who won that year's Copeland Trophy; a fantastic achievement which was rendered meaningless in the face of such tragedy.

Did Francis get the win because of his death ?

No but Shaw got it the year before because of his injury

Do you have any news openers from the 90's to 00's? Thanks :)

So many errors: excessive speed, inattention, overtaking a turning vehicle...and he also may have been on the phone.

Are you sure the truck was turning? Ive always thought it was just slowly taking off from the lights from the right lane and going straight. He also most likely wasn’t on the phone they said

I always heard it was moving away from the lights, they didn’t say he was on the phone they said the police discounted the theory he was on the phone, at the time of the accident it was believed he just fell asleep at the wheel, we didn’t find out til later he was drunk

@@kieraingeaney6437 Yep. The lights changed just as he approached them so he tried to change lanes to the left but unfortunately just clipped the rear left hand side of the truck, which was in the right lane, and flipped. He was obviously speeding and drunk as well
