text: Tragic: An inquest heard Shaun Worthington died instantly after his car veered into oncoming traffic . A night-shift worker was killed instantly in a horror crash seconds after sending a text whilst driving home from a speed awareness course, an inquest has heard. Driver Shaun Worthington's car was filmed on a truck's dashcam veering into the path of oncoming traffic at 1.04pm - the same time the fatal text was sent. The 29-year-old died when his silver Audi A4 collided with a truck on the A614 between Burton Agnes and Haisthorpe, near Bridlington, East Yorkshire, on November 19 last year. His mother Jane Allen said: 'No mother should have to go through what I have and the devastation of losing a son. 'Shaun was such a bright man and very popular with a lot of people. 'If someone somewhere reads this and it makes them stop using their phone while driving, then at least that is something.' An inquest at Hull Coroner's Court held into Mr Worthington's death heard how he had completed a 12-hour night shift at Cranswick Pet Products in Driffield, before driving to York to complete a speed awareness course on the morning of November 19. He was on his way home to the house he shared with his sister Andrea Ward and her family in Bridlington when the crash happened. Mr Worthington's mobile phone records showed he had sent a text message at 1.04pm that afternoon, the same time the crash happened. Collision investigator officer Alfred Place said a forward-facing camera on the truck captured Mr Worthington's car drifting into the centre of the road before veering into the westbound carriageway into the path of the oncoming vehicle. The camera also captured the time of the crash as 1.04pm. Truck driver Mark Harness told police at the scene he had tried to swerve to avoid Mr Worthington but nothing could be done. Mr Worthington's family told the inquest how Mr Worthington had recently bought a new phone which did not fit into his previous mobile phone holder and that normally he would use his hands free device. Plea: Mr Worthington's mother, Jean Allen (pictured), appealed to other motorists not to use their mobile phones when driving after it was found her son had sent a text message seconds before his car crashed .

Mrs Allen said: 'If people know that someone is driving they should not ring or text them, just wait until they have got to where they need to be safely' Mrs Allen said: 'Shaun paid the ultimate price. He was not a reckless driver, he wasn't on drugs or drinking. 'If people know that someone is driving they should not ring or text them, just wait until they have got to where they need to be safely.' Returning a verdict of accidental death, coroner Paul Marks reiterated Mrs Allen's call for people not to use their phones while driving. He said: 'I would like to make a point to the public. 'All vehicle drivers should use hands-free communication accessories. 'When driving, motorists should not read or compose texts. They need to pull up if they want to send a text.' Mr Worthington was born in Hull and attended Lambwath Junior High School and Malet Lambert School, in east Hull, before moving to Bridlington with his family when he was 13. He went on to study at East Riding College, where he qualified as a chef. When he was 18, he moved to Spain with Mrs Allen and his stepfather John to help run the family business, a bar called Goodfellas in Magaluf. He spent about a year in the Spanish resort before returning to Bridlington. His family said they would like to thank everyone for their messages of support following his death. They also thanked police and family liaison officers for their support. Mrs Allen said: 'I could not have asked for a better son. 'I am going to miss him so much, but he will be forever with me in my heart. 'We are devastated by what has happened. It has blown our world apart.'
