A Sussex man was today named as one of four people killed in a Bank Holiday weekend motorway pile-up.

Roger Farley, 45, of London Road, Bexhill, died when his Peugeot 206 car was involved in a collision on the M11 in Essex last Friday, August 24.

Two children, aged 13 and nine, and their father also died in the crash, which involved four cars and three lorries.

The southbound carriageway M11 was closed for ten hours and tailbacks affected the M11 and M25.

German lorry driver Kurt Boerner, 47, has appeared before magistrates charged with four counts of causing death by dangerous driving.

He is due to appear at Chelmsford Crown Court next week.
