A man has been charged after a fatal crash on the A142 at Witcham Toll in which a man from the Wisbech area died.

Luke Davidson, 19, of New Road, Mepal, has been charged with causing death by careless driving, causing death by driving whilst uninsured and causing death by driving whilst disqualified following the collision at about 5.15pm on Saturday (20 ), outside the Esso MFG fuel station.

It involved a black Chrysler 300c and a red Suzuki GSX1400 motorcycle ridden by the 57-year-old man, who was pronounced dead at the scene and has yet to be formally identified.

Davidson appeared at Peterborough Magistrates’ Court this morning (22).

Detective Sergeant Craig Wheeler, from the Serious Collision Unit, said: “Our investigation is on-going but I am still keen to hear from anyone who may have seen the collision or captured either the Chrysler or the motorbike before it on dashcam.

“Also, if you were at the fuel station at the time of the collision and haven’t yet spoken to officers, I would urge you to get in contact with us.”
