It is believed that the 34-year-old mother from Scunthorpe and her three-year-old son got into a car accident on the A180 close to Immingham.
On Friday at 8:45 p.m., a vehicle remembered dodging the “stranded” blue Ford Focus and reported it to the police. However, at 9.06 p.m., a white articulated vehicle struck the halted car, instantly killing Nicola and Lucas.
Prior to the crash, a woman said she had to “swerve” in the pitch black to avoid Nicola’s disabled car and called for help. The Ford Focus was “stranded” in the left lane of the dual road, according to witnesses, before being struck by an HGV.
To help with their investigation into the crash, police are asking witnesses to come forward. The Independent Office of Police Complaints (IOPC) has received a complaint from Humberside Police regarding the incident.
It is our responsibility to protect the Scunthorpe family’s privacy now because many individuals have paid tribute to them in order to convey their sadness over the tragic loss.

Others wished Nicola’s other children, who are currently without a mother, well. What an awful accident, the note said. The news makes me very sad. Luis and Nicola, may you rest in peace.
“I feel a great deal of pain for their friends and family. They are on my mind and in my prayers at this challenging time. I can only send love and light to the sad boys who lost their mother.
A representative for Humberside Police said that specially trained officers and associated organizations continue to offer support to the victims’ families. They have asked that their privacy be maintained while they are going through this incredibly difficult period.
