Mark Rodwell, 47, of West End Lane, New Rossington, Doncaster, died on February 1, 2018, after an accident between two lorries at Scarning near Dereham.

Assistant coroner Jonanna Thompson said Mr Rodwell's cause of death was multiple injuries due to a road traffic collision during the inquest opening.

The accident took place on a straight section of road between the A1075 and A1065, where previous fatal accidents have taken place, at around 8.30am.

Mr Rodwell worked as a driver's mate and was sitting next to the driver of one of the lorries involved in the crash.

The A47 at Scarning was closed for several hours after the accident.

One of the lorry drivers involved suffered minor injuries.

Lorry driver Clive Storrs, 64, from Doncaster, admitted causing the death of Mr Rodwell by careless driving.

He was sentenced at Norwich Crown Court in August 2019 and given 12 months in prison, suspended for two years.

Storrs, who was driving the lorry where Mr Rodwell was a passenger, was also ordered to carry out 200 hours unpaid work and was banned from driving for 12 months.
