Every two to three weeks there is one in a ditch. People have even hit the school bus a couple of times. "I am appealing to motorists to slow down on the road."Darren Law's family issued a statement saying: "Darren kept life long friends from his school days and made many more in adult life."He was the proud father to Archie, his seven month old son and loving partner to Lucy, his girlfriend of six years."Always putting people before himself he was very popular and much loved by those who knew him and will be surely missed."Police are appealing for witnesses to the accident, which happened at about 7.55am. Darren was driving a Volvo 850 when he failed to make a right hand turn.Anyone with information should call the Collision Investigation unit on 0845 4567000.
