A motorist is set to face court proceedings after being accused of disregarding road closures and removing traffic cones during a police response to a fatal collision on the M26 motorway.
The incident unfolded on Wednesday, February 14, 2024, when officers from Kent Police closed off the M26 motorway, along with a slip road at junction 3 of the M20. These closures were implemented as emergency services attended to a collision involving a van and a lorry on the M26, tragically resulting in the loss of a man’s life.
