Tributes paid to Dartford crash victim
Comments |
Tributes have been paid to a teenager who died in a Dartford
road crash.
The family of 18-year-old Andrew Wylie, who died in a
head-on collision with an articulated lorry, said he was a
"beautiful intelligent young man".
His father, John, said: "Andrew had a great sense of humour and
always used to get into fits of giggles. He had an infectious laugh
and was a real joker - even as a kid, giggling away.
"He was popular and well-known around Bromley and and was very
talented, turning his hand to anything. I will miss my little boy
deeply."
The youngster, of Palmerston Road, Farnborough, has left a
brother, Chris, heartbroken, the family said.
Sister Lisa, 20, added: "I will always remember Andrew as a
beautiful intelligent young man who always amazed me with his many
talents.
"I will miss his magic tricks and flips and bouncing around on
his stilts. He was always giggling and was very popular and loved
by everyone who knew him."
Andrew was driving an Audi which was involved in a
collision with the HGV in Green Street Green Road, at about
2.40pm on Tuesday, March 9. He was pronounced dead at the
scene. The lorry driver was shocked but uninjured.
A section of the road, where it crosses the A282
Dartford Crossing approach, was closed shortly after the crash
and remained shut on Wednesday for resurfacing.
Anyone who witnessed the crash is asked to call Kent Police's
Serious Crash Investigation Unit on 01622 798538.
