“A40 at Headington? That's dual carriageway, with pavements / service roads / wide grass verges on at least one side of the carriageway if not both sides, and at points lit as well. So was she actually in the carriageway when hit?
Another young life lost on the roads (if not actually in "our" county this time). Far too many of late, it seems. Condolences to the family.”
