A MAN will stand trial accused of causing death by careless driving.
David Witney, 24, of Festival Gardens, Tolleshunt D’Arcy, denied the charge when he appeared at Chelmsford Crown Court and the case was adjourned until March.
Witney is alleged to have caused the death of Thomas Payne, 22, of Beckingham Street, Tolleshunt Major, in a crash on October 14, last year.
Mr Payne was driving a Mazda when he crashed with a Ford Focus driven by Witney in Tolleshunt D’Arcy, near the junctions of Beckingham Road and Festival Gardens.
Witney was bailed.
